You haven't heard much from me, here on Voice-Acting in Vegas about FaffCon4. Sheesh, the thing sold-out in, like...I dunno...a couple of hours? One of the pluses about THIS un-conference is that the seating is limited. That's so YOUR seat has the same great view as everyone else's! Unlike other...
