     Gio, could you explain/state some of the differences? I'm someone 
who's always lived in the North and has done limited traveling - (a few 
Steppes Warlords, a Dance Symposium, Outlands Phun, Kingdom A&S, several 
Interkingdoms, Known World Dance Symposium, and now Gulf Wars VII) 
[averages out to less than 1 event out of region per year]. I'd be 
interested in hearing about the differences that you've seen between the 
South and the North. (And I'd especially like to hear about what you 
found so impressive as to send suggestions southward.) :)
