I will have a table at savekon on Mar 8-9. Although not going primarily for the lunar group, I will put some of the fliers up at my table and promote it there some as well.

At Conestoga last weekend, one of the SoonerCon people offered a free club table (normally $40) & programming time. Going to try to take them up on it ; a room-mate would be appreciated.

At Anticipation, CTV Montreal put me on television, & you can see the report online (for how long I don't know). It's not the sort of coverage one would prefer, being on the lines of "what strange things can we find", but any little bit helps.
