> The AdventureGathering will celebrate the end of the current recession.
> In a report issued earlier this week, Dr. Joe Uzoma Matusiabeckett,
> Chair of the Triangle InterNetWorkers Special Committee on Economic
> Affairs (TISCEA), declared that the recession will end on May 1st:

> "Look, something's gotta be said. Everyone we've talked to is sick of
> this economic downturn garbage. (Margin of error: ~4.3%.) It's time to
> put a fork in this recession and call it done. This whole mess is soooo
> 2001. No one wants this downturn to go on. (Margin of error: ~5.6%.) So
> we went to the library and after just an hour or so, we found a strong
> correlation between go-kart racing and economic recoveries. Since the
> invention of go-cart racing, the early months of all economic
> recoveries have seen instances of people strapping themselves to small
> gas powered vehicles and romping around tracks with abandon. (Margin of
> error: ~3.1%.) This will happen at Adventure Landing on May 1st, which
> is as good a time as easy to put this sorry economy on notice. We're
> all tired of the malaise and we're not standing for it any longer.
> (Margin of error: ~6.7%.) We've had some critics scoff at our findings,
> saying 'correlation, not causation.' But even in the worst of times, we
> all still have to get out, enjoy the spring weather, play some games,
> talk to some old friends and meet some new ones. (Margin of error:
> ~0.0%.)"

> So there.

> And now, the credits. Thanks to Gina Norman, Jennifer Richardson of
> HireNetworks and Chip Knighton of Adventure Landing. We couldn't have
