It's been said that rats can gain access to your home by climbing up threw your toilet. I prefer to use the front door.

Ya.... I didn't go either.  :)

There was only two panels I wanted to see. 6 hours apart. The one on PVA foam. The other on being a mascot. There's plenty of info on line for both. Even been to a 'performing outside the con' panel at a con. Great stuff. Probably better than what could have been said there.
