However. Colorado is not West but at least we have Utah next year. There was such a push not to rotate the national, but someone prevailed and forced a vote. The vote was to ROTATE and since then, some factions have tried again to ignore the wishes of the membership. But, we remember, and it is written. It is hard to ignore the written word. Now, as to West, the biggest percentage of attendees at the national from any state, remains California. For most of us Utah is an eight hour drive, if we miss the traffic. Not close, but not impossible. But, I will never call that a West Coast national. For a reason that I can't understand, California has fallen out of the sites for a national. I can live with that. I just want to finish my trial in time to be in Ohio. It is not a sure thing, but I plan to talk fast. I will pick a jury on Monday, present my evidence and witnesses Tues, Wed, and Thursday. Then it is up to the attorneys for Home Depot to finish in time. If they know I want it done, they will drag it out. So, nobody tell them.
