What if we get Voyager to record the session?  Then we will only have to
worry about the latency to one audience...granted it may sound bad to
everyone else.  Maybe we could do some tests to determine the actual
effects of latency, like one site could count off and every node can
make a noise or hit a mic on cue and we could see how badly things line
up.  =]
