:-)

I can see golf and swimming being mutually exclusive, since Mindy is
doing both of them, but I'm sure both Densie and Gina will be quite
flexible for air tours, and they can be scheduled easily. Of the three,
it seems to me that air tours could be rescheduled more easily than the
other two if necessary.

Comments, Gina, Densie, Mindy, anybody?

The way things seem to be falling in place, it looks like convenient
happy hours will occur at various places just preceding various other
activities. Unless those who strongly favor a fixed-place recurring
happy hour say "hold it" very shortly, it looks like we will indeed have
a daily happy hour, but at various locations.

I would like to hear some more chatter from the infield regarding the
idea of a shuttle service. If it's something that we want, I think we
need to make some decisions on it very early in the game.

I'll add this as a question to the masses in the next mailing, to see
if there appears to be a demand for this.

Actually, the more I think about it, that note about activity signup
could easily be omitted, and that subject could be covered when we do
such a signup after people have registered.

I do want to avoid turning off the newcomers.

Looking back, I think the activity signup method did an excellent job
of weeding out most of the no-shows this year.

Hmmmm ... I can see that working in reverse. Consider Cathy Closetcase
who decides on the night of April 21 (far after the x day has elapsed)
that she is not ready for DLV. Without the deadline, I can see her
sending a nice "I'm just not ready for this" note, as people have done
almost all years, but with the deadline, I can see her blowing this off
and being one of the no-contact no-show people.

The more I think, though, I believe we don't even need to cover the
activity signup in the conditions of participation, but do it at the
signup time.

What I think I'm hearing is that you think a nice note (as opposed to a
separately mailed bitch-o-gram) in the mailings, suggesting a donation
to those who wish absolution and restitution, is in order. Am I correct?

That is a very good point. Time will tell. It will be interesting to see

Thanks, Monique. :) You got the job! I see a few places where this will
fit on the schedule, including Wednesday after Club Girl Talk, Thursday
after {whatever} or even Friday after the Annual Mixer.

>Payment, etc can be discussed and figured out in future DLVOrg
>emails, IMHO.

True, and the company we've been using (Bell-Trans) has been cool about
adjusting the number of vehicles, etc. at short notice, so this will
most likely not require an advance payment except for those who are
not gonna be present at the first part of DLV.

One suggestion I would make would be to have some kind of arrangement
made for liquid refreshments in advance.

Since there are no other applicants for that job, looks like you got it.
I'll be sure to get you lists that have larger print this year. :)

I'll be sending the group a second draft of this within a week or so.

I don't want to scare any newcomers off. One good test of this would be
to see how many people bring up the registration screen, click to view
the conditions of participation, and proceed no further.

I do think we need to continue to give suggestions on where to stay, but
not insist or require for any of several reasons already discussed.

We've heard from the people who favor the Sahara and the IP, and from
those who want an upscale option such as the Bellagio, but we really
have not heard from the contingent (which does include longtimers and
volunteers) who prefer smaller and in some cases way off the beaten path
places. Do we want to suggest one of these as well? (Or do the people
who stay at those want their space? <semi grin>)

This is the way I feel about it too. (I also doubt that the Bellagio has
the $2.99 steak/eggs special either. :) Different people have different
priorities WRT room selection. For me, a clean phone line is important,
but most others probably do not care about that.

Do you have a preferred day/time for this yet?

IIRC, Flex has this on Monday, which does not officially hit our
proposed schedule, and Goodtimes has this on Wednesday, which does.
Since this is a fixed-day/time thing, I'm gonna put this in for
Wednesday following the Club Girl Talk, keeping in mind that this can
easily be two-tracked.

You're very welcome. As soon as the schedule is solid, I'll contact Tiny
and get the ball rolling WRT the administrivial details. I get the
feeling that they will work with us as far as paying individually, etc.
That's one big advantage of the smaller showrooms.

In a response, she clarified that she meant a club where strippers
perform, as opposed to a nightclub on the Strip. :)

I seem to remember that somebody mentioned the Satin Saddle last year as
a possibility. This is (was?) a NLV club catering to the lesbian set.

I said I would bring this up as a suggestion.

I would like to keep the "lady or gentleman" wording in there, since
that implies a standard of behavior. "Dress and act as a member of the
gender you are presenting" would certainly include such things as
hookers and pimps, which brought on this whole brouhaha. I think "L or
G" can be merged into what you proposed above.

I'm planning to issue the group a second draft of this as soon as all
the comments are in and I play with the wording a bit.

Before we consider a re-vote, let's wait until toward the end of the
comment period and see if any more negative comments or objections come
in. If there are a significant number of them, then I would say
reconsidering the dates would be in order. That's why we have the
call for comments.

I have a feeling if we changed to #2 or anything else, there would be an
equal number of lockouts.

Let's face it, there is no ideal time for DLV in 2003. :( Damn Calendar.

If we do reconsider dates, I want to do it VERY VERY carefully, and very
methodically, being damn sure we aren't walking into a sure no-winner.

See below. Both 1 and 2 allowed the N+I people to attend DLV. Another
option (grab can of worms, walk to can opener) would be to have DLV the
week after N+I, terminating on Mothers Day weekend. We have done that
three years out of six and did not have any objections until 2000.

The first week of May is N+I. That will lock me (and those others who
attend N+I) out of at least some of DLV, and possibly lock me out of all
of it. If I do attend N+I, I'm up bright and early every day and over
there at the Convention Center all day. If somebody else from our
department goes to N+I (it's somebody else's turn) then I'm locked out
totally, since we minimize the people gone over any one period. I will
not know if I am the one representing our department at N+I this year
until after the first of 2003. I've been the one the past 4 years now,
so if anybody else so much as peeps that they might like to do it, they
(rightly so) get to do it.

Do we want to consider the first full week in May, ending on Mothers
Day?

We do understand and don't hold it against anybody, but we expect the

I don't ever envision us having the likes of a Studio 54 doorman who
looks over the dress of our people. (This is DLV, not Miss Vera's.)

Let me work on the wording of this. What I want to say is no obvious
mixed-mode or skagdrag. There are also a few who like to pull the
in-your-face I'm-a-tranny-you-got-a-problem-with-that-Mac highly
confrontational bit. This is rare, but we want to state that it is
not cool.

"Appropriate to the time, place, and circumstance" does give quite a bit
of latitude. For most of our activities this ranges from the very casual
tourista mode to very dressy. Had the Metamorphosis Ball happened, that
would have been a totally different set of circumstances.

I want some language that is brief and gets these points across.

IP has two buffets. Big one up front, smaller one back in the Teahouse
coffee shop. I've avoided the big one up front due to the fact that
people have told me it sucks. I've been to the Teahouse many times, both
off the menu and buffet, and never had a bad meal, although I admit that
if you are expecting haute cuisine, you will be very disappointed.

I stayed there once long before DLV, mainly because the places I usually
stay were booked. No complaints except for the foot and vehicle traffic
in the area. My room was very nice, and I've seen several DLV peoples'
rooms, which I've considered anywhere from very OK to very nice.

Hmmmm .... I'm hearing a call for consistency and a call for diversity
here. Sound familiar? :)

As for the happy hour, it looks like by default it will be at various
locations, often just before a meal, prior to a feature activity of
the evening.

As for breakfast/brunch, the only noonish meal we have proposed so far
is at the Bellagio. I doubt if people would wanna have a daily meal at
those prices. :)

I think they will be. They had been open something like 6 weeks as of

Well, it won't happen unless we have people volunteering to do it. It's
one of the things that did not turn out well, despite a good idea and
what I consider to be a first-class implementation.

I don't see anybody jumping up and down waving their hands on this one,
so I think it's safe to say it will not occur this year.

We want to suggest hotels for our people for (at least) two reasons:

1. So people who do not know Las Vegas will know they are staying in
a place that's known to be decent and t-friendly or t-oblivious.

2. So people who want to stay in the same facility as other DLV people
can do so.

There are other considerations. One off-line discussion touched on the
marketing power we might have if we focused our business on certain
properties. Another is the transportation issue.

The hotels we suggest will most likely be voted upon around the first
of November.
