(Torcon III was the Horrible Example: every time I thought I should leave the bar to actually see the con, someone I knew would come in saying "Oh, Dennis! You're here! Let's have a drink!" If you took a blood sample at the end it would have had a proof content...)


That was Jordan Kare. He's also an active filker. His wife Marykaye is a prominent con runner.
