Thanks Dave -

I'll check out AirTran.  What I'd like to do is the sequencer tour.
Colin's P3 seq and David Hugh's Zeit are going to be at the UK synth diy.
I can't remember who's going to be at the Pacific Northwest gathering.
Seems like there is going to be some seqs there:  Jim Patchell/Mikado?
Peter Grenader/Milton?   I've been building/tweaking a sequencer (isn't
everybody?:) and just wanted to check out some of these others.  I'd like
to go to both meetings and show off my beasty.  I guess I need to put up
some pics of my seq on SDIY sometime soon.

Lowest flights I've seen are $408 to PNW and $679 for UK.    If I could
just get it down to half of that...  Good luck huh?  I found a student
price of $368 to the UK, but I stopped being a student last year.   Hmm..
maybe I should check out the ride boards at colleges around here.   Hell, I
thumbed from LA to Greensboro, NC in 4 days in the early 70's.  I don't
think I could do that today though.       There's gotta be a way to do it.

Over & out - Robert
