Dragon*Con!!!

Dragon*Con!!!
So, who is going to Dragon*Con this year?

I am! Just bought tickets and got my flight booked! Managed to get a return flight with Delta for £400 (~$585) which is pretty good going I thought. It's gonna be a great 4 days.

Anyone else going?

I'm glad I'm close by this year, Atlanta right, sometime in Sept.? I think I might use going to see the wife's family as an excuse to go.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

They have a bunch of different fan tracks catered to all types of fandoms, and even a Skeptics track. James Randi will be there, and Adam Savage of Mythbusters. They also get a lot of movie and TV actors.

James Randi is coming? Adam Savage?!? SWEEEEEET!!!

Now I don't feel bad about not paying the extortionate £208 "TAM London" ticket price. Last year they sold out within an hour, selling tickets at £170 each. This year they still have tickets left over, which I put down to the increase in price, and perhaps some disappointment at last year's one.
