One thing I don't think has been mentioned yet is that the price now includes
the Penguin Dinner at all levels. Previously it was only included at
Professional level, but most people bought a ticket anyway. This way it saves
a step for most people's requirements - optimise for the common case. This is
around $60 usually and this pretty much accounts for the increase for
Concession and Hobbyist levels. I don't know what the Professionals get extra
- - a warm glow of helping fund LCA and LA, perhaps?
Have fun,
Paul
