Just checking in...

[David Sander]

....and from what I can see, there's an awful lot of noise going on here
at the moment. Goodness gracious, and quite a few absentees, too -
little wonder.

Oh well.

Anyway, just wanted to a) see who was still here, and b) find out if
anyone was heading to Toronto for the World Science Fiction Convention
being held at the end of September.

I'm sending a sample DVD of a special demo sequence of Man Conquers
Space on the invitation of TorCon organizers, which they'll be screening
at some point during the proceedings.

It won't be anything like a whole film, instead it's a special
demonstration sequence running about 4 minutes, in the finished feature
film's 2.35:1 ratio with proper editing and everything.

Anyway, just interested.

Ah... I missed that, too, since I'm used to just thinking of it being
" Worldcon Time "... <g>

I was reading in the bathroom when I ran across an item written by

which said:

Hmm... What are the dates?

Haven't had time to visit a lot lately, but I have dropped in. Have
fun in Toronto; I'm off to Maine in nine days!

Same time as I'll be tooling around Maine and New Brunswick; couldn't
make it if I wanted to. But have a good time.

Still here, modulo a vacation or two... and will be at the Worldcon.

That could also depend on how many from here will be there...

But, if the usual Worldcon logistics are followed, there will be
a " voodoo board ", with an alphabetical listing of all memberships,
with a place to place notes to anyone on said list, and pins to push
in by the recipient's name, to let them know that someone left them
a message...

Worldcons are lovely events, but vacations, they're surely not... <g>

I'll be on site, as of Wednesday afternoon. Strathcona Hotel.
