Mose, thanks for this update. I would like to know the date of the conference to book my flight plans accordingly and early enough. July 4 is going to fall on a Friday, so, I need to know the date, now, to avoid paying $350 or more for an air ticket. As I write, Expedia and Travelocity have it at $262, roundtrip. If anyone knows of a cheaper price, please let me know. Thanks for your assistance in this request.
