Just to stir up some sand.......

I can't help but feel that ABANA
is primarily an east coast organization.
Most of the conferences are too far away to economically attend, for 
those of us on the left coast.
Most of the ABANA workshops etc are on the east coast.
The Anvil's Ring sorta feels like it comes from another country.
The organization has become so large as to have become an institution
with all of the baggage that implies..
Sure, efforts to include us are evident...but......
Perhaps it should be split?
