You are extremely generous with me. Thanks for the good thoughts!
One strong incentive for me is the idea of putting faces, smiles and
characters (at least, I have one! :-) on those email names I saw all around
on my screen for so long. This might also be my only chance, as I'm really
not a traveller. I'll see if I cannot find something to speak about,
which the organisers would judge interesting enough to warrant me there.
I'm still uncomfortable with the expense thing, but maybe I should merely
let it be my own problem, and learn to live with it! :-)
