I understand it's hard to nail it down, but it seems that the poster
(and the attached registration form) really only benefits people who
plan on attending the whole conference.  I was merely poking fun at
the checkboxes on the form for "which day(s) you wish to attend" since
I have nothing (yet) on which to base a decision of which days I plan
to attend.

In addition, we received several of these posters (probably one for every
person who attended last year), and nobody really payed any attention to
them for the exact reason I mentioned.  Thus we'll wait until something
arrives telling us which days we'll want to sign up for.

Oh well.
