Shit, I hope this doesn't get sold out too soon. I generally get my tickets in July. The fact that Capcom's going to be there means that I need to be there too.
Anyway, I love being 15 minutes away from the site of PAX.

I wish I had been more active at pax 09. I was just so overwhelmed by the whole thing. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced in my life and it was with people I had just met in the flesh for the first time so it was kinda weird.

Also, I don't understand the fascination with Freezepop. They effing blow. They were the worst part of PAX 07, and probably 08, and probably will be of 09. I want the One-Ups and NESkimos!

Yes, if you go to PAX, I will stand in the background of all your pictures. I can make that happen. :p

I got mine and BunnyRabbit's earlier today. It almost pained me to spend so much at once on stuff but then I learned of thr cool £600 grant which should cover PAX comfortably.
Given Dtoid is so awesome, I may even buy the editorial team a beer or two as well!

Still there is room for greater development and I would recommend more emphasis on research and of course it will bring a better situation. Thanks for sharing a nice read. Cheers

Third, many scholars consider that the Phaistos disk is written in a syllabary.  According to TORC, the Trojan language had an Ugric grammar, and therefore belonged to the Ural-Altaic family.
