A theme park.  Carl, the acrophobe, is determined to ride the 
SkyCoaster again.  (He's an acrophobe/masochist, I guess.)  
Whether anybody will want to tromp all over a theme park after 
tromping all over the RenFaire is an as-yet-unanswered question.  
I'm not sure I'm up to it, but then again I dunno what else I want to 
do that *wouldn't* involve lots of walking.  The Internet has taken 
some of the fun out of gamestore tours... it's very unlikely I'll run 
across an "I had NO idea anyone was producing a game like this!" 
anymore.

I'm thinking the ballroom will work better if we plan to have a bunch 
of pickup games with lots of people circulating.  Which probably 
means card/board games (preferably non-collectible, I sold my 
Magic cards about seven years ago to buy this house.  I'm 
reasonably sure it was about seven years because I'm suddenly 
getting all sorts of telemarketers telling me the FHA has sold my 
name to a bunch of telemarketers because the seven-year 
requirement is almost up.  Hmph).

Thus far, we have twenty subscribers to the subtopic.  And an 
unknown number of people reading via web.
