Depends where the conference is. I recently got asked to present someone else's work (a project on which I was more or less a consultant) at a conference that the main author couldn't attend due to scheduling conflict. I declined. Because it was in New Haven, CT. If it were in the Caribbean, or maybe even CA or FL, I would've gone in a heartbeat. But New Haven? Fuck that all to hell.

I don't really have an opinion of it. I wasn't specifically trashing New Haven; just sayin' that if I'm going anywhere in March, it better damn well be a place I can have a cocktail on the patio. I live in Detroit, and it's been cold as balls here since about mid-December. Kinda over it by now.
