I think that may have been Amy.  She was sitting directly behind me.  In fa=
ct, she gave her seat to me when she moved back a row since I'm nice and sh=
ort and wouldn't obstruct her view. =20

Moderators were kind of an issue all weekend.  I seem to recall reading tha=
t it's the con's policy to have a moderator available and I genuinely think=
 that they were trying to give JMS the respect due him.  But they just didn=

.  That said, the cutesy question from that fan wasn't their fault at all. =
 That would have happened no matter what, I think.  The main issue with tha=
t particular moderator was that he didn't simply meet JMS when he came in a=
nd ask him how he wanted things done.
