Not sure if anyone's actually read this yet, but I had a good laugh at it.
Someone who was upset about not being flown to Valve to see the new L4D2 Campaign and a modder is flying Gabe and Eric the Project Manager to Australia to preview it there at his home.
Valve employees donated money, haha. Imagine an April's Fools in their office.

"Fly Gabe Newell" Raises $3000

That started about a week ago, apparently they're confirmed it with Valve and everyone involved, they're actually going. I'm impressed with the Valve heads for actually following through and planning on going, don't think many other studio's give their fans the time of day like Valve do.

Gabe's going Airborne.

Anyways, may be someone else has more info on this, I'm just reading it on random sites. I'm curious if anyone has more details :)
