Any chance you and Peter might consider sitting in on the "So you
wanna put on a C*?" panel on Sunday with me?
Either to point and giggle, or actually contribute?

Something that crossed my mind is that perhaps in lieu of a FAQ,
perhaps a collection of past "gotchas" might be in order. As a

Perhaps just getting together 'round a few bottles of liquid courage
and kvetching over what's been done wrong, and praising what's been
done right with past C*s while in ****tland....and/or Ybor :)
