That page seems dead. It spawned a whoile bunch of popups and then asked if I was interested in buying the domain.
Any other links?

Re: Otacon?
Aha. otaKon not otaCon.
Such was my problem!
Alas, there is no way for me to get to Baltimore this weekend. Especially on 5 days notice. But I’ll put it on the list for next year 🙂

Let me get this straight… you’re complaining because you didn’t have to go through 3 security check points for the con?
I’m not sure how serious you are… there are many, many reasons why security is, can, and should be higher for the Dem. National Convention.
Besides… who’s paying for the security? I somehow expect that to be part of the convention budget…
Politically, yes, disrupting the DemCon would be a higher coup for the bad guys. Practically speaking, however, a comparison of the actual number of potential victims, one has to be amused by the irony of the disparity in security.
the fact that the attendance is so much higher is one of the limiting factors as to how much security you can have in place. I’m not sure what the breaking point is, but I am sure it is much lower.
Aw, hell. Missed it again. One of these days I *will* make it to a Comicon.
