So I’m trying to register for a conference and this is what it says on the registration page:
There is no registration fee for this year’s conference. Instead, a payment of $200 is required at the time of registration to defray the cost of meals and refreshments for conference attendees.
So there’s no registration fee, you just have to pay a fee at registration. Gotcha.
Book Review: The Ultimate Hitchhiker’s Guide

Author: Douglas Adams
Publisher: Wings
Rating: 
Buy The Ultimate Hitchhiker’s Guide on Amazon.com
This five-book anthology follows the adventures of Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Trillian, and Zaphod Beeblebrox from that fateful moment when the Vogons show up to demolish the earth to that fateful moment when…well, you’ll see. Pay close attention as you read because even the most random plot points will come back to haunt you later. This book also includes a short story, “Young Zaphod Plays It Safe” that explores some of Zaphod’s earlier years and apparently hints at the origins of one controversial Earth figure. Douglas Adams lampoons everything from science to bureaucracy, so hang on tight!
