Having the it at CITI makes it much more feasible... IMHO..

So are most of the 20 to 25% based out of Paris? If it was held in Paris,
what would be percentage of people travelling out of country? Meaning would 
only 75 to 80% would have to travelling out of country or would that 
percentage go up to 90 to 95%? If its the latter I see no reason
to move it... 

My two cents...
