Yep. And, we'd be able to take advantage of the fact that if we allow
various groups to be in charge of their areas, then they're in charge
of their equipment, too.

Tell you what, Dave ;-) You guys give me, say, $100,000 budget, and
I'll take the chair, and put on a conference. But, I get to keep
anything of the $100,000 I don't spend. I think I can guarantee you an
excellent conference, one which will bring in lots of members, that
people will love and be talking about for years.
