ADVANCE. We'll probably have to pay these buses beforehand in some
way.
In order to avoid trouble with people signing up in the wiki but
finally never confirming by actually paying for the bus cost, I think
we should take a margin in some way for dividing costs: assume that if
50 people put their name on the wiki, then 48 will end up really
paying and therefore divide costs by 48 and nto 50. If, finally,
really 50 people show up, then it'll be time to redistribute the extra
collected money in some way. That would secure things out and
guarantee that the person collecting the money is not the one ending
up filling the missing parts.
