Coombz why such a chip on your shoulder?
You always seem like you're attacking someone :headscratch:
What do you have against us in the States?
Did your passport get declined or something :headscratch:

This probably doesn't mean anything coming from me, but you are very good at getting a rise out of people (particularly me).

Instead of trolling the ah bbs you should focus your energy on the PETA or Veggieboards. The potential for lolz is immense.

We use to organize and run all the conventions. As the number of people attending dwindled,(my guess is do to the newness of meeting people in the online world where off) it no longer was worth our direct time.

HiTech

Or, it could be a real fear of meeting people they have screamed obscenities at on 200 and the forums...I'm just speculating...I would like a reservation please!  Front row, center available?  I would like to see UncleTIP and Asbatt get after it with a "Yo momma's so fat..." kinda thing.  Then, after they get each other all jacked up,  we can give them a venti Starbucks coffee, 20oz boxing gloves, and bicycle helmets and see what they can do.   If both are still standing or haven't died of heart failure, we can give them a two minute break and a 2 X 4 each, sans the bicycle helmets.

Beer anyone?

Would've loved to be able to attend a EuroCon (if only so dhyran could give me a stern talking to), but sadly that's off the cards now :(

we had a little one in seattle last year:

The last few con's were not organized by us, but we help with fee collection and a announcements.

Things have changed.  The one and only Con I attended was in 2001 in Grapevine.  What a hoot!  Got to meet Drax, Levi, and a bunch of other guys.  HTC sponsored and hosted the event and I can remember looking aroiund the room and appreciating how much work went into the network requirements..definately a huge undertaking.

Only if it's undefended.  Sep is it undefended?  I'd really hate to go anywhere that might be defended.  Can we go NOE too?

HT what would you say to a roll out of one of the old Evil Con missions every now and again? They were always the highlight of the weekend...well, aside from the flying sheep  :devil

Would be nice for the newer folks to see what they were about.

Since the Eurocon and AH Spring Meeting will take place during the very same weekend, that would make a nice handshake to your European clients.
