   The report I heard was that Jason mentioned something about her posing   
   for Playboy and she got up and left.  I don't know any more than that,   
   and it seems odd (since IIRC in past years anyway she had some of the   
   pictures for sale at her autograph table).

   Somebody apparently asked a question related to Data's emotion chip, and   
   she didn't quite catch the question and something to the effect of "did   
   I have a chip?".  Frakes said something about her having a chip on her   
   shoulder, and she walked out.

   That's always cool.  One of my friends (lives here in the Huntsville   
   area, is a leader on the D*C tech staff, is a Guest of D*C, and is in a   
   bunch of the DCTV videos including the Portal gun one) blogged about   
   running into Scott Adsit in the hotel; it is a funny story:

   It certainly isn't "taking over".  That's still the Friday night event   
   in one of the ballrooms, but that's it.  I thought it might be gone   
   after last year after they punched a hole in the ballroom wall (the   
   hotel was NOT happy, but good for us videography caught it on video to   
   prove it was the wrestlers' fault).  I don't really know why it is   
   there, but it seems to get a crowd, so they keep having it.  It isn't   
   expanding, although it did move to a larger ballroom a few years ago   
   (that was more for logistics with the ring than space though).   
      
   Now that we have a bunch of other big ballrooms (in the Marriott,   
   Sheraton, and now Westin), wrestling using one on Friday night isn't   
   really a big deal.
