[vcf-midatlantic] VCF East 2020 Update

[Peter Fletcher]

I’d say that is it then for me.  If the State of NJ doesn’t want events of size being held we ought listen to that. 

I know this is going to be inconvenient, and frankly I have no idea if I’ll get the money I’ve paid for my hotel stay refunded or not, but I really don’t want to feel responsible for spreading a disease because people are touching my old keyboards and joysticks.

The VCF demographic is solidly middle age and older, exactly the people this is affecting most.

Not that I get a vote, but if I do have one, I vote to cancel and find a date later in the year.

-Pete
