Given the lack of interest shown in the polls for when and where to have this get-together, this may be a moot question. Those polls have had 70 views (+/-) without a single response so far. If nobody's willing to even mark a preference, what chance is there for it to happen?

CT | Something is wacky then, CT. Because I voted on both polls and it was showing me the % of everyone else's responses.

CT don't get discouraged. A lot of people don't fill out the polls because they don't have a preference, but are just waiting for someone to tell them where and when. I personally would prefer Vegas, but I'll still show up no matter where you have it. I also didn't select when because that kind of depends on where. For example, I DON'T want to go to Orlando in the middle of summer, or Minneapolis in the dead of winter.

Unless you actually have voted in the polls, the results don't come up automatically. If you want to see the results without voting, click "veiw poll results" on the lower righthand corner, and that will let you see the results without voting.

I voted for both, but given enough time to scrape together some money, it really doesn't matter to me when OR where it is. I prefer Vegas & Orlando... just because it sounds like fun, AND I'll toss in Nashville as an option because they also have a Bariatric Center of Excellence.... BUT, assuming I can get the money together for it, I'd go to it regardless of where you choose.

Looks like the other polls are working now, so back to Gail's original question - anyone got a catchy name for this shindig?
