Anyone want to pay for me to go?

In particular I'd like to sit in this discussion...

Do Natural Birth Advocates Hurt their Own Cause?
Karen Fennell RN MS
Normal (natural) birth advocates are often very passionate about their belief that a non-medicated, non-induced, non-interventionist and undisturbed vaginal birth is “the best way” to have a baby. In their zeal, many advocates accuse physicians of having ulterior motives, not following best practices, and not giving good care. This session will focus on the methods of persuasion used by the advocates and whether or not these methods have assisted or inhibited gains in natural/normal childbirth and breastfeeding.

There are many, many more I'd like to sit in on. But at the moment we don't have a spare $1K to go.
