But someone had to finally finally tell me a few years back, though, that amid the long Who hiatus Gallifrey One wasn't just about Gallifrey anymore. What's more, that the organizer was actually a colleague of mine, times two! (Trek AND politics—who knew, Shaun?... Oh, I guess you did.)
So, after a one-year lapse—I'll be back at the LAX Marriott Friday big time, lesser on Saturday and Sunday—holding up the Trekland banner, even despite the biggest Who guest line-up and panel content in years... and the biggest registration for GO in years. (Amazing what having a SERIES in ACTIVE PRODUCTION will do to ramp up the fanbase, eh, CBS/Paramount?)
Crossover fandom is still the rage—and after all, we do have THIS popping out of the replicator in a couple months ...
At Gallifrey, we'll also be letting you know what's up with things on The Con of Wrath—we are filming this week around L.A., too—as well as some new news out of Trekland, if I am able to talk about it by then (even before you read about it here.)
So, if it's a hop cross-country it might be a little late to make it ... but if you find yourself in SoCal and call yourself a fan, better hitch on over to Century and Airport for this shindig. Make sure and say hi—my DP and game designer/author Neal Hallford will be around if I am, and I'm be co-tabling with DeForest Kelley biographer Terry Rioux. Good times! Pun intended!

I will be there on Saturday and will be sure to look you up. So I won't feel out of place if I wear my Starfleet uniform? I've been trying to decide if it's a good idea or not.
Oh no, Tina--Saturday was the one day I was not on site. :-(
Did you wear your Starfleet duds? There were a couple others.
You know, with the TNG/Who crossover comic coming, you should have been right in style. Don't let the haters get to you. :-)
As it turns out, I had to cancel anyway, I had a medical emergency with one of my dogs. Maybe next year. Anyway, I look forward to meeting you at some point, at one event or another :)
Great chatting with you at Gally this year. Looking forward to seeing Con of Wrath when it's all done.
same to you, Reuben, And THANKS for the CON OF WRATH donation!
