I agree! Time to just "push away" folks!

It was mostly a reply to Ed Siegler...
While the VF is a pretty nice place to hold a show - unless you have access to a car there is nothing to do in KofP after 9:00pm. The lodging options are weak as well as the eateries.
As for cost issues, I would swear that the "hacker" mentioned cutting the admission cost in 1/2. So, even if the show were to move into the center of Philly it won't cost you any more to attend - prolly even less (I'm guessing by 1/2 to be exact). As for your concerns regarding the higher costs to run the show in "downtown Philly" - I imagine that PC dev. team is very thankful for your concern.
My hats off to the geniuses behind the scenes for building excitement about the show at this stage. I would recommend sitting back, putting you feet up, sharpen you Warlord skills and enjoy the ride. And if that can't happen - then email David and Co. and see how you can be involved in the planning committee (pony up some $$$ to have a say?
If you attended PC4 last year, I'm betting you'll attend PC? this year too!
