Please tell me how we know each other?

[debgeisler]

This is my irregular poll to find out who I know corporeally. Do we know each other in an off-the-interwebs sense?

Dearheart, I know exactly who you are.

:-) *hugs*

You missed, "Yes, sort-of, I'm sure we've been in the same room except I forget if we've ever formally met in meatspace". I blame fandom. And incipient senility (mine).

I know we've never met. We may well have been in the same physical location, but I would have remembered finally meeting you. :-) (Well, okay, unless it was on 1 September 2001. Mostly don't remember that day.)

"Finally." Uh, oh. :-> Based on Worldcon attendance alone (mine has, admittedly, been sporadic) I feel certain we must have been in roughly the same place and probably more than once. We may well have been back-to-back at the same Tor party. Certainly everyone I've 'met' in fandom since I became more active online in the mid-to-late 90s turns out to have been at the 1984 Worldcon (my first).

My first Worldcon was Noreascon 3, so that's out. And I usually don't go to parties (especially crowded ones) unless I'm working on them, although I appreciate the invitations. :-)

Who are you? And why are we in this handbasket?
