Unfortunately, no.  ECCC was not in the budget this year.  However, that same day I will be seeing a friend's dramatic musical play, The Ghosts of Celilo -- http://www.ghostsofcelilo.com

Forgot to mention.  Talked on the phone with Jeri Ellsworth last night, and she will be attending ECCC.

She got the plane ticket a few days ago,

ECCC IS THIS COMING WEEKEND!!!

If you own a C128 and are within 1,000,000 miles of Chicago, you are REQUIRED to attend! No excuses!

Besides, it should be a real geek/festival/fantastico. I would not lie to you about something this serious.

That would put the C128 owner in outer space, way past the moon's distance to the earth!  ;-)
