Not me.  In at least the past two years, I haven't received email from
either Catherine Crockett or Murray Moore, at any address.  Not even
in my log of rejected messages, i.e. those in HTML, or with attachments,
or from sites in the RBL.

Only if they emailed me from Taiwan, Argentina, or Korea would it not
even be logged.  (The volume of spam from those places was so immense
than even one line for each rejected message would quickly fill my
allotment of disk space.)

Since the conflicting convention is in Toronto, I doubt it
would have made any difference, anyhow.  In addition to Ditto
(http://ditto15.efanzines.com/) in Toronto, we're also in conflict
with Con*Stellation XXI (http://www.con-stellation.org/) in
Alabama, ConJecture (http://www.conjecture.org/) in California,
MileHiCon (http://www.milehicon.org/) in Colorado, and Icon
(http://www.mindbridge.org/icon/) in Iowa.  Nothing local, however.

Had we chosen some other weekend, we would have been in conflict with
a similar list of about the same size.  Longer on holiday weekends.

This search showed me that that Capclave is listed almost NOWHERE.
Was I supposed to announce it to various newsgroups and web sites,
as I did last year?  I thought Sam was going to do so this year.

unsolicited bulk e-mail (spam) is not acceptable.  Please do not send me
HTML, "rich text," or attachments, as all such email is discarded unread.
