Ask others what they thought.. but Saturday is usually "the big day" of past 
OSF weeks, often with like 200 or so showing up.  Last year's OSF held at 
Kelly USA, we only had a couple handfulls of folks show up on Saturday.  
Talking with Steve and others.. we all thought that it was because of the 
location.  Many reported that they didn't know about the Kelly location and 
some even inadvertently showed up at SAC instead..  I think that's what Steve 
and the others changed it back to SAC. 

(comments from others very welcome)
