Okie, okie, it's bad news for me, horrendous news for Mark, but given the
feeling by a lot of us that WotC was probably going to move it to the left
coast, you have to give SOME
credit for keeping a midwest/heartland tradition in the center
of the continent.

Anyway, as the t-shirt idea seems to have devolved into
quibbling about quotes, we should probably be focusing on trying the second
half of my idea, Jihad 2000. Lads on the list, me excepted, of course, have
done yeoman service promoting GZG. I'd say this makes it worth redoubling the
effort!

Oh, my brothers, as this is the year that Andon has promised that the
miniatures shall return from the wilderness, let those of us pilgrimaging to
this far off land, and the many
other showcases of wars-without-blood, to prove our devotion.

Anyway, lighten up. Three more years, three more GenCons in Milwaukee. Heck,
my first GenCon was in Kenosha; the con was named after Lake Geneva. Someone
else will have fond memories of Indianappolis if the next move happens, me
thinks.

Now, if only I could get Salute moved to Kansas City... ;->=

It wouldn't be "horrendus" for me. By the time the move occurs I will be well
out of school and settled into a stable job. It should be too hard for me
afford a couple of days in Indiana. However, GenCon goes with Milwaukee like
beer, bratwurst, and socialist mayors (well, two out
