A badge will be printed for you, so unless another Camron Fox shows up, 
with ID, and claims it, you will need only your drivers license.  I 
suppose that at this point your receipt is your "Welcome to TPOSSCON!" 
greeting.  Not very good, so I appreciate the feedback.

I will work with the webmasters to improve this.  Expect a letter from 
the organizers at the turn of the year.  If you have any trouble when 
you arrive, ask for me.

Yes.  Several Sheraton properties have offered special TPOSSCON rates

http://www.tposscon.com/where_to_stay.php

and Aloha Airlines is our official carrier.  You can get 15% off of 
published rates by mentioning the conference.  Our webmasters are 
working on getting this information up.  You will need the registration 
code that I am mailing you privately.  We are working on adding this to 
your registration email.

The Aloha Airlines details are
