Let's talk about PAX.

So, PAX is fun.

I'm looking forward to PAX this year.

I'm researching hotels and whether it would be more/less hassle and more/less expensive to fly or drive.

I think it might be a good idea to get people to talk things up, find room-mates, etc. Last year was pretty well co-ordinated it seemed to me, and I'd like to see similar success this year.

If people say so in this thread, I will craft this OP into a comprehensive guide of the who, what, where, and whys of PAX.

    Interesting story about the group photo; when I got it home and blew it up, I discovered my camera was big enough and my lens good enough that apparently the photographer had managed to take a picture where the angle was such that there was an accidental and hopefully unintentional upskirt in the picture.

    Oops.

    where'd it all go?

    Some to Hawaii. Some to Seattle. My wife went to the UK a couple times for study; then we had that 5th wedding anniversary in Japan. I lost a bit in San Francisco, too, I guess, but not much.
