Advice about attending Nimbus 2003, that means you, PLEASE, I'M DESPERATE HERE!

Ahem. Hopefully that got some people's attention. :)

My seminar idea was accepted for Nimbus, and they want me to speak. 
HOwever. It turns out that it's just going to be a really... 
difficult time of year to get away, esp. all the way to Orlando. 
Financially, schedule-wise, and in every other way. So I DESPERATELY 
NEED SOME ADVICE and input, since they need to know for sure by the 
end of the month (I told them to put me on the schedule for now.)

A.)Is anyone else going from vaguely on my route, so I could split 
driving? That would really make a difference. It would be so much 
cheaper to take my own car. Anyone from Nashville, Chattanooga, even 
Knoxville, Atlanta (c'mon, there HAS to be someone going from 
Atlanta,) Birmingham, AL, the Florida panhandle... basically, the 
region between Nashville and Orlando. 

B.) Who else is planning to go, and what is your age 
range/interests/etc? If it's going to be mostly 14 year olds or 
something, I'm not sure how much they'd get out of my seminar idea. 

C.) If I do go, I will definitely document as much of the proceedings 
on DV as I can (I'm primarily a filmmaker and editor.) Would this be 
of interest to anyone?
