You speak of the ant, I give you the Uberant!

Scientists have discovered that billions of Argentine ants living in Western Europe from millions of different nests are actually part of one gi-ant colony. Read all about it!

No word on when they plan to enslave the French and burn the worlds capitals. In between bouts of singing "The Internationale" in teeny-tiny voices, they have demanded the immediate surrender of Cuba and that Seinfeld alumni be prevented from making any more TV shows.

(This is what I get for reading real news right after The Onion.

totally unrelated, what is your BayCon guest status?

I'm confirmed, and they had a cool method of getting down my information and desires about which panels I'd like to be on and what people I would/would not like to do panels with.

Hit the web site and they even have a good number of us listed.

Now the next hurdle is getting a list of what the panels are before two days out. It would be nice to be able to (1) prepare completely for what I'm scheduled for and (2) be able to say "gee, that sounds interesting, add me to that panel" before the conguide goes to the printer

I've not recieved any confirmation, but I'm on list.

I said "Put mey on anything, but writing, and I can BS my way through."

Lets see what I end up on this time.

Did you get the email pointing you to your information site? If so, you're a guest.

Yep I got the reference to the programming questionare.

I expected a followup eMail saying "You are a Guest and will be on panels." since I've filled out questionares before, but ended up not being a guest.

Last year we didn't get the conforamtion until two days befor the con. Check the BayCon page to see if you are listed.
