My apologies. I had not been attempting to be misleading. I was, in fact,
*aware* of most of what you posted. However, I was in a hurry; and I kinda
figured someone would offer more correct directions anyway.

Actually, when I went last time, I volunteered for gofer duty. If you work
15 hours over the length of the Con, you get: free crash space, a $30
registration refund, and a free T-shirt.
I plan on doing it again this year, too. (And I already have 8+ hours
locked in.) When you arrive there, go to the Video Game Tournament Room,
and ask the people running it for Andrew.

Also, I'm going to be attending KATSUCON 3, in Virginia Beach. March 7-9,
1997. Holiday Inn Executive Center, Virginia Beach, Virginia. KatsuCon web
