I shouldn't be on that list as I haven't actually done anything other than suggest that I would make this below post (and checked that it would be ok with them if I did).
I asked Aeneas if the plan was just for calgaryboy to come, or if this was trying to get him over with his wife and daughter. Aeneas said they'd only really budgeted for calgaryboy, although he'd always wanted to try to find a way for the whole family to come because of how absolutely amazing they all are. Personally, I thought that seems like a long time to be away from my family even for such a neat thing.
I told Aeneas that given the response to this thread, my guess was there are probably enough people who would also want to contribute that we could try to (without any promises of course) target enough for 3 plane tickets instead of 1 (knowing of course calgaryboy who is already uncomfortable with this whole thing would probably think this is totally unacceptable and say no). I don't know calgaryboy, or Aeneas for that matter, but honestly this is one of my favourite things I've ever seen on the internet and thought I would toss this out there as my two cents on a "stretch goal" idea. But seriously, I shouldn't be on that list!
