I don't really know what we'd do if we were all in one place.
e.g., watch a few fanedits and a few preservations on a big screen; attend a talk by Adywan|Harmy|Poita|Team_Negative1; attend an Adobe AfterEffects speed-tutorial; count petition signatures with pat man; check out booths publicizing new fanedits and preservations; meet TV's Frink; be a part of a short movie documenting the convention; <insert your idea here>.
