I've heard some numbers tossed around regarding some of the venue costs and those numbers were pretty big (but I don't know if they were at all accurate).

Anybody have a rough idea of the typical cost for a venue? Are we talking $1,000, $10,000, or $100,000? I'd guess it's between the last two.
My understanding has been that nothing, or nearly nothing, of registration fees go toward hosting regional events. I know a lot of others who're under the same impression, so if that's not true -- or if that isn't a consistent explanation across all events -- it'd be nice for someone to set us straight.
