I think it's a good intention and concept. . .but I think it's a bit of 
a stretch. . .

It would take longer for us to get to Port Jervis than to Croatia.  (I 
have only been to the former.) It's the NYCbug. . .we should focus our 
activities in locations reasonable to Manhattan and to the boroughs. . 
.

It might make more sense to do the install fest at Marco's which is a 
short subway ride from Manhattan.  I know it's also possible to get 
some locations in Manhattan. . .but someone would have to sort that 
out. . .
