[Groop] Groo Con 2008

[MacQuarrie at Earthlink]

I'm skipping Comic-Con this year. Last year was unbearable; the panels were
so overcrowded they had to make all the hallways one-way traffic. It was
pretty much a miserable week, with so many demands on everybody's schedules
that there was no time to do any networking or even socializing. And since
they've changed the guest policy for pros this year, I'd have to pay for
three memberships for my kids, it's not worth going.

I'm considering going to Wonder-con, but that's carved in butter at this
point.
