I am, in fact, quite stupidly willing to take that on if everyone
agrees that Portland is the right venue. Stupidly, because having
already helped to organize the CRC event I know how much work this can
be. Since we are in fact an organization without any rules, I'm
puzzled about how this gets decided. I guess we should just ask Joe
and Kas. What say you guys? And does anyone have an objection?
I think a full-sized cutout of Uncle Jack in his leisure suit is a
requirement for the event, and should travel to whatever other venues
we subsequently pick for the Kastner Kup.
