What exactly is preventing people from going to these events? It doesn't
appear to be distance or cost. Is there some huge financial barrier I'm
missing or visa requirements (last I checked that wasn't an issue any more, I
thought)?
I understand if it's too expensive in general vs the benefits of going. I get
that. I'm figuring on spending about $100 USD for 4 days to get from where I
am in the US to Boston.
I also get that some people aren't in a good position, because of school,
economic conditions, etc.
