Thanks for being so gracious, but there is no bad luck here - just bad planning for a site that was not particularly well selected. (Don't take my own word for it, see the historical Bart Bok article written in 1960. I.e.
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1960JRASC..54..257B )
I do agree though the present committee of the ASNSWI did not select the site but inherited the problem. I also suggest (as others here) it is a great get-together of people of similar interests. Pity it is so far to get to the place!
