Shmoocon/Burning Man Tickets

[foxgrrl]

Burning Man tickets go on sale today, I'm currently number 6760 in line. I won't be surprised if they've already sold out the first 10,000. Although I'm not 100% certain that I'm going to Burning Man this year, I'm sure that I can find someone to use the ticket(s).

Shmoocon rejected my talk proposal along with 90 others submitted, yay! This tremendously simplifies my life, since when I submitted the talk, I didn't realize that Shmoocon was at the same time as something else I had committed to doing in San Jose. I was worried that I'd have to fly out to DC, go to the hotel, give my talk, go back to the airport and jump on the first plane back to the bay area, all on one day.

Anyway, as a consolation, Shmoocon is offering me a normal registration for only $75. So, if you want/need a Shmoocon ticket, I can get you one, since I'm preoccupied that weekend and can't make it to DC.

I haven't heard back from Heidi yet.

Ok, now I have heard back from Heidi Potter, and I have a coupon code to enter into the online ticket purchase thingy [https://www.shmoocon.org/cart/]. So, it might be easier if I just give that to you, and you buy the tickets directly, rather than me being the middleman. The EULA implies that this is ok:
