While I'd love to attend (I grew up in Weston, MA), I don't think I can. I'll either be at college in Pittsburgh, PA or home on vacation in Vermont when I watch the DVDs.

Old Sturbridge Village would be cool, though possibly distracting. It depends on whether people want to go out and look at OSV or spend their time in the meeting room discussing Firefly. If what people want is a room to spend the day discussing Firefly then I'd say get someone's house or a regular hotel conference room or something; OSV would be a waste in that case.
Not as a substitute for the DVD release shindig, as it would be a bit early, but I've volunteered to run a panel on Firefly at United Fan Con in Springfield, MA November 7, 8, and 9, 2003.

My plan is to bring word of the latest developments in the DVD and movie plans and whatever else is going on at that point to those who *don't* hang out on these boards.
UFC is a nice, low-key con. Enough people to be fun, not so many that it's unbearably packed. So far the guests are all Dr. Who actors and the human cop from Alien Nation, but they're working on getting additional guests.

James Caan or the guy from "Robot Jocks"?
Viva Firefly!

Gary Graham. Evidently he's also been in some "Enterprise" episodes.
I would expect United Fan Con to pick up at least one more guest likely to be a bigger audience draw. Last year there were three "Farscape" actors. In the past they've had Trek and B5 people.

And indeed they have announced more guests: Mercedes McNab (Harmony) and Michael Shanks (Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1). I hope my panel doesn't end up being scheduled opposite their presentations!
