No, I make it sound like there are a lot of AFOLs in the Pac NW. I was
trying to make the point that AFOLs who are enthusiastic enough to form LUGs
will be the ones who are enthusiastic enough to come to a 'fest.

Never at any point did I mention PNLTC when I mentioned long travel times to
So Cal or LLC.
I mentioned PNLTC when I was talking about LUGs we have close to the Seattle
area. This was intended to demonstrate the high number of AFOLs we have in
the Pac NW.

Sure they could. But I bet they would much rather have a local 'fest, where
they'd be able to have a much larger display.

Well, that sounds fun too. I wonder how much it would cost and whether LLC
would allow a non-LEGO sponsored club to hold a 'fest directly in the park?
