ITEC 2012?

[red0radio0head]

Does anyone know where the ITEC in 2012 will be???

[The Impaler]

On a related note, did they announce where the regional ITECs will be in 2011?

[jdsalas]

They announced at the membership meeting that final details on the 2012 ITEC were being worked out and should be announced in the next week. Rumor mill is that it will be outside the US.

Cool. I like it when "international" things are actually international. Out of North America would be even cooler.

local "banda" sousaphonists playing "Rolling Thunder,"

you obviously haven't been to ANY such conferences in the last decade. The ONLY tune used to close such events is a waddling version of "Them Basses". Rolling Thunder......geez....that's SO last century!

ITEC 2012 will be held in the Yucatan Peninsula, hosted by Weril of Brazil. Event coordinators will be Mayan priests who will usher in the official resetting of the Mayan Long Count calandar to 00:00:00. As the world ends in flames and explosions the conference will conclude with an ensemble of participants and local "banda" sousaphonists playing "Rolling Thunder," followed by a special arrangement of the overture to "La Forza del Destino," at which point all life on the planet will cease.

So, The Elephant is also discretely letting the Tubenet crowd know that this could be one of the cheapest “international” gatherings yet as only a one-way ticket is required. Book now!



(BTW, bravo -- one of the finer tongue-in-cheek posts I've read here in a while...)
