vinchyfoot Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 Curious how others feel about this. Is it responsible to hold a Conference during the Pandemic?
BlackRockBigfoot Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 Why not? Anyone who felt uncomfortable about attending due to Covid could just...not attend. There are large gatherings of people that occur daily across the nation. Why not Bigfoot conferences? That's the most politically neutral answer that I could give. Curious to see how this thread progresses 3

Is the Bigfoot T shirt worth those 14 days? 1
BlackRockBigfoot Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 Any answer that I give here would probably be more suited to the political section of the Tar Pit, so I think that I will just see myself out of this thread. 2
Arvedis Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) I don't think the folks attending the last Ohio conference quarantined for 14 days. May as well rent a place to live if people are doing that. Unless something changes, I would expect all conferences to pause. It will take a while for folks to adapt to online or not doing them at all. Edited August 3, 2020 by Arvedis 1

Seems like you wouldn't want to go.
Mizzy D Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Well they've already canceled the Honobia conference for this October. I do know people who recently participated in the Tennessee conference, one of them I know self-isolated afterwards for 2 weeks.

Mizzy D Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 ....and they did wear masks for the conference in the Smokey Mountains...it's a whole 'nother world, folks...

I had to put a mask on to go into REI the other day (because as much as I disagree with it, I'm not going to browbeat a teenage girl making minimum wage) and just forgot to take it off when I left. I was a few miles down the road before I realized it. For a few minutes, I was one of those people. Horrifying. 1

Catmandoo Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 When we drive along a roadway with the window(s) down, we leave a trail of dead skin cells. What else do we trail? Second hand chili dogs?
