Interesting meeting. (I really wouldn't want to go to New Orleans in January, however.)

 

I've seen a copy of the magazine "Amphora," which I believe the organization sponsors. It appeared to be a fine enough magazine.

That said, if they held conferences in Las Vegas....

I would really love to go to NO.  Homicide and crime not an issue - sensible precautions can always be taken (though there are some areas of the southern US I wouldn't feel comfortable (probably irrational).  

 

It would presumably be considerably warmer than Lincolnshire in January.  I bet you can't guess where I am at the moment.

I've been to New Orleans a few times.

 

Great food. Fun music. Interesting night life. Just don't wonder off alone too much in the seedier parts of town late at night.

 

The problem for me is that I have only so many vacation days. New Orleans is not on the top of my list of places to go.

 

An interesting scene of New Orleans:

Honestly, New Orleans and the state of Louisiana have more of a Caribbean feel than anything.
