We only did what we were told to do!  When I got
there, nine hardbacks and 5 paperbacks were stuffed
into the bags, which I had no problem doing.  The
secret is to put trade paperbacks sideways on the long
side and paperbacks in a double row.  If there had
been an exact count of the books and written
instructions on what went into each bag, it might have
been different.  When I talked to the people at
registration on Saturday night, only two hard backs
and two paperbacks were being sent to the no-shows, as
well as memory book, program, etc.

I saw on SFW who won awards, but I don't recall seeing
where the 2006(?) WFC will be - Austin or Melbourne?
