I don't have any idea what you're talking about.  Frisco is a small
town in the mountains west of Denver, Colorado.  As I said before, it's
near Breckenridge, so there's good skiing this time of year.  So it
certainly does seem like a nice place to hold a conference.

I've been to both Frisco and San Francisco, and I would certainly never
get them confused.  They are nothing alike.
