Okay, I can relate too.  I'll go through the finances and match it up  
with the 2006-2007 budget to give you a picture of where we are at  
with it.

A couple things to note:
- The financial statement didn't show all of Autodesk's  
contributions, there is another $70k coming in any day now that went  
with the initial 50k but was reserved for 2007.
- VisCom budget doesn't need a lump sum up front, it would still  
useable if available in quarterly instalments as/when available.
- If I don't have a handle on funds for this conference early next  
week, I'm going to say we can't use the donated booth space  
effectively, (or I'll try to find a plan B).  This isn't necessarily  
a bad thing, only because it means I'll have even more time to devote  
to fundraising activities instead of event planning and that's a good  
thing.

This is certainly putting some fire under FunCom and raises its items  
priority back to where they should be on my list.

Thanks all - have a good weekend,
Tyler
