Absolutely.  There will NEVER be an audience fee for rtlToronto events.
It's a hassle I don't want to deal with.  But a contest participation fee,
well, yeah, that actually would be kinda cute.

Maybe a real informal thing, sort of like the Friday night poker game kind
of pot.  But I think that's something we need everyone to agree on.

I didn't expect to get another one, since I already had 2...

Hey! I don't even have a single rtlTShirt yet!
I would love to get one thou'... Chris, Calum? could you guys bring one over
this Friday? an XL should do it :))

I'd love to but I am literally all out.  I know I promised to go and get the
second batch done up, but between wisdom teeth, arguing with Bell Mobility,
getting corporate expenses done, and meeting secret Lego agents outside
Eaton Center to exchange baseplates, I just haven't gotten around to it.
I'll give an ETA for the next batch of shirts RSN.  Honest!

I think Ben is referring to an extra Lego S@H shirt he has.  I got one too
when I bought my second Metroliner.  I haven't worn it yet, I can't explain
what's wrong with it from a design standpoint, but it's a little too bright
for me.*

* - this comes from a guy who has worn a Daewoo/Daytek Canada neon yellow
shirt at Comdex'94.  And a bright blue tie-dyed shirt to the formal closing
ceremonies of the CSIE National Conference in 1998.  (Got a standing ovation
for that one, btw :)
