Re: Can't Make it to Colorado this Year? Attend the 2012 Virtual Accessing Higher Ground Conference

Hi guys
Is it just me (mind like a ceive, 3 kids makes one awfully tired
sometimes, not to mention health issues), or does the price of a
single admission ticket to the virtual conference not readily display
anywhere. The registration page shows discount codes but no price
info, the payment page asks for a lot of personal and professional
info, does not show the prices in the first 2 steps. If someone has
come across the cost of an individual ticket, could you please post
it, here or send me an email?
For next conference, please make the prices more readily obvious on
the registration page. I don't feel like doing a lot of paperwork just
to find out the price, then turn around and try my best to look cute
so my employer will consider reimbursing me for it. For now the
lineuplooks great, and I hope I can arrange to attend virtually. :)
Thanks everyone.
