Indeed I think that there are many (students & otherwise) who would attend
if there was more finances available. I "put it aside" as I don't think
there is anything the LAC organizers can do about that aspect.

I personally really enjoy the face-to-face chatting with like-minded
people. Conversation is a much faster medium, and ideas flow more easily. I
know when I send to list, I usually think more, and sometimes re-read my
messages before sending. To brainstorm and collaborate effectively I feel
it is fundamentally necessary to meet and have that fast interaction with
people that have similar goals or ideas. The LAC affords an opportunity for
this, I would see it as a great loss if it were to go entirely online.
