Having fun, and raised about £45 so far for charity. Surprise hit was the plastic (acetate) flatlanders - I had no sales at Salute, I've sold out here. Flatland and Elvis are also doing reasonably well, as is the Diana paperback. I've been on a panel and run a Flatland / Forgotten Futures adventure today, spent the rest of my time in the dealer's room - tomorrow I've two panels and an adventure but hope to do some selling too. Right now I'm headed for food then the games auction at nine.
In other news there is a petition on the 10 Downing Street web site to get Alan Turing pardoned posthumously - no idea if it'll do any good, but any Brit with an interest in Computers / IT might want to think about signing - you have to have a verifiable British address for this one:

by the way. One of the enjoyable things about reading 'Dead Trouble' at the other sites where you've been posting is the reviews. So many of them take sides and lay out their arguments as to why they're right. I'm not going to say that I agree with any group, but trying to souse out the reasoning process is fascinating.
It's like the who should Buffy wind up with debate. Many of those involved don't seem to realize that the reasons that they put forth to remove Angel from the contention also remove Spike.
Fascinating.

The charities I'm supporting are Cancer Research UK and Doctors Without Borders; at the moment the split is about two fifths to CRC and three fifths to DWB, but I'll have to double check my figures at the end of the con, because this includes the full price of some of the things I'm selling, a percentage of others.
