Well, I don't know why a good majority of the rest of the Guild calls it the "National", but I, at least, call it the National to differentiate it from the various Regionals. It's no use calling the National the Annual, since all the Regionals are Annuals as well. As for the implied but missing "Convention", what other National occurrence are members of the PTG likely to be talking about, when asking each other if they are going to attend something next year? Also, of course, we could agree to call it the National because of the large numbers of people from various Nations attending it ... I propose then, to bow deeply to Susan's and apparently the majority of Member's habits and logic, that the Bylaws be changed to call the Annual Convention, "The National". Every reference thereafter, either in speech or in writing to that convention must be changed to the words, "The National". I can see it now: Wally Brooks RPT, Director of the 2005 PTG National in Atlantic City, NJ. No room for any classes on "how to tune a piano out of tune" but 10 classes on player pianos.
