God damn it!
Once again, it is time for the annual Baycon Programming dance! The cone is about two weeks away. I've been a panelist for the last few years. And for the third year in a row, I have no idea if I'm coming back this year!
How difficult is it to compile a list of e-mail addresses and make contact with panelists in January? I've already had contact with Orycon.. and that is in November! This is just unacceptable. Because I am expecting to be a panelist. If I'm not, that means that neither Kiri or I can afford the convention.
Several e-mails to programming have gone unanswered, and I've even e-mailed the chair to ask what was up? Nothing.
Pisses me off. The con is drowning in politics if they can't get a simple staff position filled in time to contact panelists in a timely manner.

no subject
but then you still actually fir the bill of what BayCon wants, hard sciency types not fags like me wondering where all the queer characters and themes are. I find terrible that the main Bay Area Convention has no queer programming, unless I bitch and get a panel thrown in, and I've gotten tired of fighting it.
Near as I can tell, Kathryn Daughtry is head of programming this year. Offline we will talk about my feelings on this.
