I wish I could follow you need to be unhappy about this. The AMA moved it from Pasadena because the show had gooten too large, parking was a nightmare, hotel space was an issue, and the Pasadena site just got to be a problem. The new Ontario Convenrtion Center is larger, better parking, easier access for vendors and people coming to the show. So why do you find negatives here?

And I have no idea what you mean when you talk about accessible to AMA members. District X is the single largest AMA District. So in fact having a show out here is a real service to the members who will never be able to get back east for either Toledo or the WRAM show. Ontario is just a few minutes east of Los Angeles, the second largest city in the country, so there is a pretty good population of AMA members and general people interested in teh hobby.

Oh well, you are one of the group that if AMA was giving away free money would complain about the denomination. Kind of senseless to even engage in a discussion.

I've been to every IMS/AMA Show since 1989. I am glad that AMA took over the show rather than let it die. And to be clear the reason it wold have dies was because the pwerson who poured his heart and soul into doing it no longer had the energy to keep going. And yet somehow that's a bad thing in your eyes. Wow.
