Good news about the compilation project, Colonel. I hope Rob is a quick typist!
Speaking of the LGGC, how did things go? I haven't seen a write up of it here or at dragonsfoot and was curious as to how things went. Did you run an AD&D or OD&D game or an LA session? Any memorable gaming sessions?

Rob is not as slow as I am these days, but more I can not assert
The LGGC was a smashing success--an ideal mini-con of relaxed fun with many "name" persns there as regular folks just having fun. I don't believe there was a single complaint, and all the attendees played games and enjoyed themselves.
We had an "open porch" party in the thursday evening ot the cn, and about 20 people showed up- Gail had prepared too much food, so there were leftovers here for several days after.
I schmoozed around with folks on Friday and Sunday, answered questions and signed autographs, played a couple of short games.
On Saturday I was the tour guide for those who wanted to see the locations of TSR during its history. We went in a yellow school bus, too big for easy pull-over stops for my extended descriptions of things, so we rolled along. When the group got back to the Cove i spent about a quarter of an hour completing my spiel. All seemed pretty well satisfied with the tour.
I then had seven gamers over to my front poech for an LA game adventure session, which the all seemed to enjoy greatly.
We then went to the Next Door Pub--the scene of much old GenCon revelry--with the Trolls for pizza and beer.
The Trolls were delighted with how the gathering went, and the next LGGC is going to be held in early June next year, possibly with a second one following in the early autumn.
I for one surely had a great time
Cheerio,
Gary
