[Air-l] AIR 2007 in Vancouver or else

[Michel J. Menou]

I too feel the location issue is better discussed in the general list.
I have nothing against Vancouver, except that it may be far and 
expensive (travel wise) for many Europeans.
But any location is likely to give relative advantage to some subset of 
the membership/attendees.
If the rotation is meant to be once in "North America", once elsewhere, 
I'd like to remind that North America includes Mexico, from a strict 
geographic standpoint, and that the Caribbean is eventually as close 
(Puerto Rico having in addition special ties with the US, like the 
Virgin Islands). Both locations (Mexico and Caribbean) offer a lot of 
suitable resorts.
And I certainly cross fingers for Italy to be selected some time soon as 
it is a paradise for thinking as well as feeding :-)
