Sorry, but the last west coast convention (and only truly fully "west"
convention ever), was in 2004.  2005 was in Indianapolis and this year was
in Memphis.  I know the west is already scheduled to have one in Seattle in
2008, but I really think the easterner's get more options closer to home
than we "lost souls" out west ever have.
