Hi Phil,
My point was not to bring up the old driver vs. trailer queen issue.   Rather, 
I think attendence would suffer because of weather conditions along the way to 
the event.

Ever been stopped on an Interstate for 5 or 6 hours during an ice storm?   With 
no way to get off?    Not fun!   (But then maybe thats why you live in Tampa 
now!) <g>
