* Mark Evanier reminds that Tuesday morning is the hotel sign-up period for attendees of Comic-Con International. That is something that has changed very, very much over they years. Most of my advice is outdated. For instance, there was period where every browser but Explorer was causing those using them to be delayed. I can't imagine that's true now -- and in fact, I remember the one person who benefited from my advice and that person probably hasn't found their own hotel room in seven years. I recommend getting as many in your party as are going to try and sign up. I recommend researching and having hotels picked out on a list before the registration period. I recommend starting about five minutes early. I recommend prayer.
