I just remembered one thing that bothered me.... what happened to the buttons this year? I know many people have collected the buttons from previous years as momentos of the fest. The wrist band type "badge" that they used this year just doesn't have the same... attachment(pardon the pun) as the nice buttons from previous years. Was it a cost-saving measure?

It's not a big deal of course, but those colorful buttons were certainly a nice touch!
