We don't have the money either, but...we are going, so I guess we will be doing some raffles after the event to pay the bills.

Hopefully we won't be too far off.

Anyway, see you guys in Los Angeles in a few days.

Meanwhile call some companies to see if you can get some sponsors. We are getting more T-Shirts printed and adding any sponsors names to the back. We are also raffling off robotic vacuum cleaners. We make 500 tickets and have the raffle when they are all sold. Then we do it again until all the bills are paid. (We just buy the robot vacuums. They are called, "Roomba's". Very cool actually. Made by iRobot which is a very high tech robotics company in Boston. They made the body for the "Urban Robot", which JPL was programming to go upstairs, etc.)
