Hi all,

I figured I'd request this publicly, since I'm already a member of
Haiku, Inc. and I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be public.

It looks like there is a high probability I can do the SCaLE 9x show
in Los Angeles, CA, USA this year. It is next month, February 25-27th.

Looks like I will probably need to fly down there which will be less
than $100 (one way flight - maybe as cheap as $65 if I can book it
soon enough on Southwest)

I will be staying 3 nights (Thursday night before the show, then
Friday and Saturday night during the show) at $109/night at the hotel
where the conference is - this will probably extend out to something
like $375 total after room tax, etc.

I will then probably be catching a ride home with my wife who will be
in the area that weekend and driving back Sunday the 27th.

The conference costs are free AFAIK, I should have all the supplies I
will need, and I will probably be collecting donations while there
(which will either be used to aid my reimbursement, or deposited to
the Haiku, Inc. Paypal account if desired - whatever is simpler). I
also plan to take care of all my meals personally.

So, the question is - can I request somewhere between $400 and $450
reimbursement to do a 3 day show at SCaLE this year? Will that be too
much?

I am also looking for someone who will volunteer to help at the booth,
preferably someone already in the SoCal area.

Thanks,

Urias McCullough
