I actually think we could do a lot worse than Dallas. It's sort of mid-way for everyone, the hotel was great, there were interesting possibilities for collecting in the area, and the weather is still nice in Nov. Add to that the number of potential workers on the ground, and the ONLY "down-side" I see is that we've been there before. The trade-off seems small to me.
