I understand why people might have some anxiety about DC, but IMHO its really
no different from anywhere else in terms of safety. My personal objections
are more pragmatic. I just recently moved from DC and even aside from 9/11,
mid-size conventions there always have their problems - hotel accommodations
in the district proper are a constant hassle. Once the new convention center
is up, organizng such an even will be much easier (and probably much more
enjoyable). Until then, however, DC just seems like more trouble than its
worth on all sides.
