I went to my local annual SF con today. It's not nearly as large or well-run as it was when I was a kid/teen. The programming people never reached out of my parents, even though they speak there more years that not. It took 3 tries for my dad to finally hear back from them that they would have panels; and even then, they didn't find out what topics they would be doing there until Thanksgiving afternoon (so less than 24 hours before the con opened...) So inept.

My favorite dealer (a family friend after decades of local con acquaintance) also passed away this past spring. His wife doesn't have the booth there this year; I don't know if she made other arrangements for the weekend or if the Hornsmythe has gone online-only with Cal's passing. He was just about the kindest, most gentlemanly human being I have ever had the pleasure to know. It's just not the same not seeing him anymore.
