I'm sure these 13 people, who always travel to GC to work it, would be willing to miss a couple of out of town conferences to keep their jobs. Its not a vacation for them - its work.
Its about making the best decision for the current economic crisis. And there is an economic crisis. No one says they have to have GC locally all the time, forever even. But they could save serious money if they would have it locally or cut it back to every other year....till the finances straighten out.
it doesnt make sense to have mass layoffs (which they have already done once this year) then have a conference that operated in the RED only to come home and lay off more people to save 80K.

Theresa, that makes fiscal sense but it won't happen.
To move to a biennial GC would be to acknowledge: "This organization isn't growing like we claim it is."
And the perception would probably send a lot more people out the door.
Agreed with the above posts pointing out that PPH is a dinosaur in the internet age.
