Hi Sibyl,
I'd love Burlington. It might not be warm but there is a lot of good
winter activities. However, It is probably too late for this year to
find out what the costs, etc. are, but if you want to put a proposal
for 2012, count me in.

We also have a poor public transportation system... sorry, unless someone else in Florida can host the conference.
