Second reference I've seen on the list to science fiction conventions. I'm
curious. How many list members have been to a sci-fi convention or even
know about them? Anybody been to any WorldCons, Westercons or EasterCons?
I know Chris Garcia is active in fandom. Anybody else?
Semi-OT since many of the cons are heavily computer/robot leaning events.
In the early days, it was about the only place that computer geeks could
gather and be respected as peers.
