Also, as I emailed Matt... there is a possiblity that the first weekend of
May might conflict with Anime Central. ACen fluctuates between the first
few weekends of May. It may or may not interfere, but do we want to risk
losing the Youmacon staff for the anime room, along with myself and a number
of other possible attendees?
