I'll have to get around to posting my own reminiscences, but for now, I had a 
lurker named Ilene contact me privately to ask me to post this:


"I've been a long-time lurker in r.a.s.t.b5.mod.  The last time I posted to 
the unmoderated group was in 1995 but I don't think I ever posted to the 
moderated group.
 
"I decided to go to Phoenix Comicon because of the B5 20th anniversary.  I'm 
really glad I went, though I doubt I'll go to another Comicon--very large and 
intense.  Among the serendipitous outcomes was that I remembered going to a 
little con in Massachusetts years ago--it turned out to be Rebelcon in 
Taunton in July 1996.  I vaguely remembered getting Michael O'Hare's 
autograph, and I found it (personalized with my name).  So one of the 
greatest gifts I received at Comicon was something I already had, and (in 
view of the timeline discussed at Joe's Friday panel) it means more now.  
Rick Biggs and Pat Tallman also were at Rebelcon.
 
"I introduced myself to a couple of newsgroup luminaries at the first B5 
panel but didn't really do any socializing.  I went to most of the B5 events 
and a couple of Whedon panels (no autographs or photo ops).  Saturday evening 
I started feeling like I needed a change of venue so I decided to take in the 
Padres-Diamondbacks game.  When the fire alarm went off on Sunday, it was 
almost time for me to go to the airport anyway so I took off.
 
"Joe is a hoot!
 
"Back to lurking,
Ilene"
