Ah yes but how many FOSS4G ones do you have?  That is my point.  To me,
with the FOSS4G t-shirts, they are the things that are useful and cool for
years to come.  I just got a FOSS4G-Europe OSGeo-Live USB key, has the
cool conference logo on it, and it is priceless to me.

I guess we can agree to disagree :)
