Are, in the grand scheme of things, T-shirts really worth the hassle?

Don't want to sound pushy, but didn't you do this last year?  Given
that and that you know probably understand CAPSconference better than
most it would probably take you less time than anyone else...

I did this last year, but don't know how reusable it will be, owing to
not really knowing how this year's site works...

Sounds, er, fun...

Again, I think you did this didn't you?

I didn't really think so, but discussion is proceeding apace, it
