Ah, I just looked up how much plane tickets from where I live to Burbank would be so I could attend the panel. I really need to move to California. $600 bucks, and then there would be the hotel, car rental, etc. etc. 😐 If you go please have a great time for those of us that are too far away to attend! <3
