I agree with Ben. Although I don't have a steady schedule, it makes it a LOT easier for me to plan my trips and if need be, I can slip a day or two here and there either when leaving or returning so as to make a meeting. Given that most of the airlines close out their special fares two weeks before departure, it would save me a lot of money, for example. Also, technically speaking (and yes, I realize that this is an actual religious argument :-), the 12 days of Christmas start on Christmas Day and run through January 6th. Not that we need an excuse to party anyway :-). I will be away 31 Dec - 4 Jan, however, but early January would be a dandy time for a(nother) party anyway. I think it would also help the members focus on what needs to be done as an organization for the coming year. Just my 20 millidollars' worth. Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!
