You know, it's been a while since I went to a convention. (Probably 
Galaxycon in 1992 was my last one, other than a brief drop in at the 
Richardson Comicon to get my Strangers in Paradise stuff signed by Terry 
Moore) and with Worldcon in San Antonio that's probably a trip I could 
muster up folks to go to from DFW. It might be worth it to make the trip.
