Here is an interesting optimization problem: it turns out the most
polluting part of a conference is people taking jets to fly to the
conference.  Minimize that and the planet wins.  Favors hub cities over
spokes, like San Diego or Prague, where you "can't get there from here",
no matter where "here" is.
