    Nice! Sounds good. I'm betting you'll be there dubious? I'll go if i can get a ride. it's only 21 miles from my house and no LDF means this may be the next best thing.

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I saw Sharon at Chiller and then again at Famous Monsters, and she does recall the flowers. We'll figure something out. You're about 20 miles from the convention hotel. Which day were you planning to go?

    DB you JUST need to upgrade and add the ‘Big Daddy’ option where your vehicle will gently drift to the bottom of water, in your case the Atlantic Ocean, and just maneuver itself with no navigation on the ocean floor until you reach the nearest port in the UK. From there you can pick up Neil and MapQuest yourself back home.

    An awesome time, though attendance was moderate and people didn't seem to be spending much.

    The NIGHT of the LIVING DEAD panel was unbelievably cool...


    Among other highlights, also got to hang with Trance and his girlfriend for a bit. It's always great to meet the faces behind the screen names.

    Sorry, I should have done that in the first place as well as credit the photographer...



    (Front row, L to R) John Russo (screenwriter), Russ Streiner (producer), George Kosana (the sheriff), Bill Hinzman (in cemetery ghoul make-up)
    (Middle row, L to R) Joe Unitas (lighting supervisor), Rick Catizone (The Animators), Lee Hartman (ghoul), Dave James (another ghoul), Charles Craig (TV newscaster), Kyra Schon (Karen Cooper), Ella Mae Smith (yet another ghoul!), Gary 'the man' Streiner (sound engineer), Regis 'Einstein' Survinski (special effects)
    (Back row, L to R): Ken Kish and Art Ettinger (panel moderators)

    Not pictured: Herbert Summer (ghoul shot at gas pump). Photo by Laura Parker.

    Very funny story courtesy of pyrotechnics expert Regis Survinski: we were looking at a photo of the NOTLD newsroom and he said, "I remember the Sunday when we filmed that!" I said, "how do you remember that it was a Sunday?" Regis replied, "because that was the day my moonshine still exploded after church!"
