What is the big deal about all of this? If someone wants to put together a gathering of FT'rs for a weekend in whatever city, then go for it. If someone wants to have a private gathering for a few of his/her friends in whatever city, then go for it.</font>
And if someone doesnt want to go, then dont. I also dont see the big deal here. If there are people that have made friends here and want to see them (myself included), then go for it. There are "dos" to fit each taste, and I think thats great. Now the overuse of this word, "do", is what should be the topic of debate.

And no, I still cant go to Chicago...
