Thanks.  I'm trying to remember who claimed there had been 700.  354
looks a lot more plausible.

As for how many stealth WSFAns were there, I don't know everyone who
has joined since 2005, though it's my impression that there haven't
been very many.  But I do know that to the best of my knowledge there
were no pre-2006 WSFA members there other than the dozen I mentioned.
That's a lot fewer than last year.  Similarly with others from the
DC area.  Similarly with others from other cities.  The con was was
mostly locals.  I'm curious why.
