    I vote for Atlantic City...eat drink gamble, etc. Seriously, we could get a big conference room and each investor can give a 20 minute seminar highlighting his favorite investment strategies....Power Point slides and all. There will need to be a keg in the room though.

      Would this be better than an IBD convention?

        I was hoping you'd like it Ernie...But I was pretty sure you would...That's why I didn't ask first before I posted the poll.

        I actually have a number of possible ideas...but I'll let others post some first.

        And I am serious...I'd love to meet you and many of the other members...Of course it is unrealistic to think that 1500 members would all come...But even 30 or 40 would be cool...Doug

          GREAT IDEA! Where at? My comps are at Taj.

          I say Crash the IBD convention and hand out discrete invites to th MM convention.

          Cover: Want to meet the MMAN where the REAL moneys made?

          Inside: The usual $$MM$ is huge! and anthing else to piss them off. Hehe!

              I'd vote for Atlantic City if we did it in the spring or summer. Otherwise Vail, Aspen, or preferrably Steamboat Springs if we did it this winter. Skiing ya know. Count me in for anywhere in the continental USA. Steamboat is beautiful in the winter. No wives.

                  I'll be there, but I don't do public speaking. Vulcans are a shy bunch.

                    I loved the ideal untill you stated..each investor can give a 20 min seminar..etc.

                    I could give a 20 min. seminar on sailing or how to sail to S. America, how to live on 100 gal of water for three weeks, getting thru a narrow cut. On picking stocks, not sure I would be worth listening too. I would listen to everyone else though. How about I play bar Tender for the beers/drinks?

                      Well...I was thinking that maybe you could be the one the Registration Desk Hostesses to welcome everybody and of course show them your watch.

                      I was hoping Webs would be the Master of Ceromonies...Although I have no problem doing that if the Vulcan is too shy...Which I have a rather difficult time believing...Of course, Lye will be the bartender...I think we give Spike and Steckler 20 mins each to give their presentation...I'll give one too...You may not learn much...But I promise to make it entertaining...although I may have a hard time keeping it to only 20 minutes once I get going.

                      Then there's the California Boys...We could give them 2 mins each...And of course those "Right Coaster" buddies of Mr. M...we could give them 20 seconds each to introduce themselves before LYE SPIKEFADES their cocktails.
