I don't want to steal you all away from Pauline but we also need a name for the Big GTG.
I am so impressed with the number of responses to Paulines request. Why on earth am I stressing my brain with so many very clever people out there.
As many suggestions as you want.
We need a name by 6pm PST - then you can all go back and play with Pauline!

"The Really Big GTG"
When I said I was calling the forum "Slow Travelers Chatter" to Colleen, she said "why not have a contest to name it?" - which was nicer than saying "Lame!!".

Well I feel lame right now
because I cannot come up with anything clever!
Pauline - don't quit your day job!

Sheena - I'm thinking maybe once the location is decided upon, the GTG could be called (drumroll, please):

Big get togethers in Scotland were called Gatherings. So ... The Great Gathering.
Or if you like alliteration: The Ramblers' Rally (or Roamers' Rally)
Similar to a forum name suggestion: Slow Trav LIVE

Bacchus GTG Blast
Yes, I'm obsessed with the Bacchus theme. You look at the descriptions of the previous GTGs and tell me I'm wrong!
9 p.m. that means I have lots of time left

Oh a deadline!!!
How about 1st annual "Slowbash"
I'm SO much better at songs, so I will entertain while you THINK!
There's a state for us...
Somewhere a date for us
Save your miles and they'll take you there
You can come, don't be square...
Somewhere, someday, SLOWBASH
or
Everybody loves SlowTravel sometimes
We can all agree and get along...

Palma:
What time is this on? It says 6.28 pm when I post here. I know Sheena is in Canada - what is her time, what is yours and what is Slow Travel's?

Can't you just see those cute Slowchicks kicking those legs up in a chorus line behind me?

I'll be at the one in Europe -- hopefully I'll see some of you there!

What's wrong with Really Big GTG or Great Big GTG?
That's what we've been calling it all along, so why not use the familiar? That way, everyone knows what we're talkin' about! RBGTG or GBGTG...good enough for me.
Give it some fancy shmancy name and no one will know what that is...then NO ONE will come to it, 'cause they won't know what they're coming to!

Maria,
If the one in Europe is at the castle in France that pedmar keeps talking about, I'm so there!
