Yeah, the sixth is monday, right? I Want to leave Tues. I said that once. Maybe it got lost in all the communication.

Those sound like good panels. I still haven't seen a good schedule of the whole con, so I haven't picked out what I want to go to.

If I get to go, I have a really nice tape recorder (and I *think* I'm getting a really nice digital video camera for my birthday from my parents--but I have to wait until my birthday/when it shows up to find out for sure).

Also, I will definitely know by Saturday whether I am going to Worldcon or not. Hopefully by tomorrow, but definitely by Saturday.

Not to be pushy/bossy/frank/or anything else that may make me seem like el burro, but if you weren't able to, would you not be able to let EUOL take it with him so he could record them (and other things he may want to record)?

EUOL can allwayse take my MD player.  If you set that thing to mono you can recorde 2+ hours on one disk, and I've got about 10 blank disks at the moment.  Thanks to the USB port on it you can easly upload it to the next and make a bunch of MP3s.

there's also the secondary problem of whether we're legally allowed to record it. i'm sure there's going to be a "procedings" publication, and they don't wnat competition for that, and may disallow recordings. Of course, in that case, you can always get the procedings book.

I also think an extension to the 7th would be good. Do you have a flight already, Brandon?

I still haven't decided if I'm flying or driving. Probably flying. My wife's thinking about going up to NH for the weekend (to stay with my sister-in-law) while i'm there, though, in which case, we'd drive and she'd drop me off.

Yay!

When's your flight getting in, and to what airport (if there are more than one)?  Maybe I can arrange to get in at the same time.

Of couse, my first panel is at 1:00 on Thursday....
