I feel your pain Ted. Although I've known for a while that I couldn't make it, due to chronic poverty and other fun reasons, I can't deny that part of me has been hoping for some miracle that would make it possible. By all accounts this is shaping up to be one of those classic events about which, in years to come, participants and poets will say "I was there!".
It's only today that I have reluctantly accepted that it ain't gonna happen for me
