Well, yes... except for the part where there were no bids from western
Europe this year that didn't drop out before the final judging :) Unless
you're suggesting that the jury should start choosing the location by fiat,
then it's awfully difficult to choose a community bid that doesn't exist.
I return to my proposal to just decree we take Frankfurt in odd years
and Boston in even ones and leave it at that. Everyone's evenly
annoyed ;-)
[okay, for flexibility, we can maybe rotate the European side among
Amsterdam and Paris, and the American one with New York or Toronto,
but it's the same broad idea...]
