Less Big Media convention (StarFest, Nan Desu Kan), and closer in feel to Mile Hi Con (our local small Literary SciFI/Fantasy con), but with a definite international and business air to it. Well, to be expected, networking between authors and other professional sorts tends to occur at a WorldCon at a scale that you wouldn't expect at a lot of other conventions.
I had the weirdest conversation in the bar where a conversation on Chernobyl where I explained to someone why the reactor exploded had an actual nuclear physicist who was in the bar at the same time and just happened to overhear, and who had read a translation of the original Soviet Documentation told me I'd gotten it bang on.
This seems like a very unlikely thing to happen anywhere else in the universe
Also managed to burn an entire roll and a half of film at the SCA demo.... And it was a good film stock too. Hopefully something came out of that
Just waiting for the Hugo's now
