Believe me, I don't have any emotional investment in the idea.  I was just
trying to come up with something fun to soften the sting if we _needed_ to
charge a lot for registration.  With the registration fee down. it's a
non-issue.

ACA might be much larger, but NEC isn't.  They're typically not too much
over 200.  Last year I think they were a fair bit under.  But it was an
"off" year for all our local clubs.  I think the bad economy really bit into
attendence.
