Doing the con virtually means at least less choice paralysis about which panel to go to, and has given me a random desire to someday wind up on a panel with
autopope, out of sheer appreciation for his deftness at supporting other panelists in being heard. Excellent humaning.
(This requires me to feel confident enough to try being on a panel at all, which I have done once in like 2001 at Minicon, well before I was actually publishing anything, but hey. It was a panel on newcomers to conventions in which when we did the introductions I sort of peered down the row at people and going last said "and I'm the token newbie".)

Thanks!
(I really should not opine publicly about other panelists, but Paul di Filippo is sometimes a little over-fond of the sound of his own voice.)

Just, had several conversations over here of the subtype, "Charlie is being a Quality Human" and I appreciate you. :)
