I don't think one-offs such as Datclone should count.  You might as
well point out that you've been to every Bucconeer.

It does occur to me that if there is to be a second Datclone, that
this winter would be the time for it.  (The previous Datclone, the
relaxacon that followed the first Datclave, was in early 1981, 28
years ago.)  You chaired the first one; are you up to chairing a
second one?

I was at the Boskone from hell, the Hostility House Disclave, and
of course Dripclave, but the only con I've been to in San José was
ConJosé.  Though I've heard some horror stories about other cons in
that city.  For instance the con that gave rise to "rule six."  See
