Actually, the main reason I mentioned "late February" is that since I will
most likely have to pay my own way to IPROF, I'd like to take advantage of
the discount airfares (very important, as the fare I was quoted an hour ago
was $176 round trip in February vs. $474 for March) AND stop by SLC Utah on
my way back east and do some skiing.
