I banged my head quite a bit coming up with dates this year that didn't conflict with EVAC, as 2/3 of them did before. I hadn't even considered RTMC. It's all the same to me-I'm just as terrified in front of 10 as 40, so whatever you guys think is fine by me. That said, my druthers are to keep it the same, just because of aforementioned head-banging and published dates in newsletters, web pages, calendars and any word of mouth that may still occur. How many board members would rather go to RTMC than SAC meeting? Why not let that be "the decider".
