A lot of people are going to Autreat, but they are posting on Autreat's mailing list rather than on WP.
Autreat's mailing list is here: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/autreatinfo/

I feel like this year's Autreat is going to be one of the best Autreats ever. I hope all of those who are going will have a very good time. It will be good to read your impressions from Autreat on WP.

It's kind of far. They are very good in terms of helping people afford it though.
I have gone in the past-- in fact, have presented in the past. I think this was in their old location. They have a college campus vs a camp. I can see advantages both ways but I liked the camp. Heck, I just like campfires.

I was there. And I saw NonlinearLuke.
It was only about 100 people, so it would be hard NOT to find someone.

It was all good.
I just don't know how to describe it.

Yes, everyone who can should go.
