     I have now placed a preliminary schedule of event times and locations on the programming and events page. The times, of course, aresubject to change, but with any luck, these are final.
     Just a reminder... Pre-reg is now CLOSED. At the door registration is your only remaining option now. 3 day passes are $40 and 1 day passes are $25.
     Unfortunately, due to the current wartime situation that our whole country finds itselfin, our Japanese guests (who we never even got a chance to announce) had to cancel their plans to come to our convention, at the request of their respective companies.We certainly understand their safety concerns, and hope that the situation is much improved next year.
