WorldCons... and Westercons, too. Lotsa big names at both of those.
Last month at WesterCon 55 (named "Conagerie" which gave it a furry theme right form the start) I was standing next to Larry Niven at the cash bar prior to the Locus Awards banquet, talking to David Brin and Harry Turtledove; with Harlan Ellisson striking up a conversation with Charlie Brown (Locus' Editor) just behind me.
Lotsa names, yup.
Sidenote: I need to read up on the K'zin (or is it "Kzinti"?) so I can intelligently talk to Larry Niven about them... I see him frequently at LASFS-related events (swam with him at Elayne Pelz's pool a couple weekends ago). He's certainly no stranger to fandom.

ConFurence will again be at the Burbank Hilton, April 25-27, 2003. Visit http://confurence.net for more details on this and other events being hosted by The ConFurence Group.
