Well . . .  there was a "three body problem"  as it were, dealing with =
Worldcon, WFC, and Jewish holidays.  I believe the 19th was the best we =
could do.

That said, the folks who will have the most problems with are BSFS folks, =
a small part of our overall warm body count.  There are some BSFS folks =
who go only to Balticon.
