A discussion about a potential gathering of Physics Forums (PF) members in Chicago during December 2006 has emerged, with suggestions for dates and activities. The idea is to meet amid holiday festivities, possibly around mid to late December, with a tentative date of December 30th being proposed. Participants expressed varying levels of interest, with some indicating they would be in the area for Christmas or New Year's. The gathering could be informal, with options to meet at a restaurant or at a member's home for coffee and desserts. There is also a mention of a possible summer gathering, as some members prefer warmer weather for travel. The conversation includes light-hearted banter about travel logistics, shopping opportunities in Chicago, and the appeal of Disney World as an alternative gathering spot. Overall, the thread reflects enthusiasm for connecting in person while accommodating different schedules and preferences.

I might do a long weekend. We'll see. I really need to get a grant application submitted this summer, so that's going to cut into "play" days. I do want to see Chicago though, so I'll have to see what I can work out.
