New Orleans and the future...

So... I've only been out of communications for a few days and already I'm starting to hear some rumblings about Convergence.

As I posted on c12_neworleans, which I suggest you all join, CONVERGENCE WILL GO ON AS SCHEDULED.

My home is currently under water. All of my possessions have been destroyed. All I have left to my name right now is basically what I have in my backpack that I'm currently on my way to New Jersey with to set up my company so it can operate again...

The news out of New Orleans looks bad... and it's getting worse... but this speculation about Convergence is not really something we need to be concentrating on. It's too far in the future to speculate and more than that, IT'S NOT HELPING THE SITUATION.

Please, if you want to help, give us your thoughts... donate to the relief effort... and pray to your deity of choice that we don't have to change the theme of Convergence to "Voodoo Atlantis." Currently, all plans are that Convergence 12 will go on as scheduled... whether we need to get another hotel or another venue or whatever... amazing things can happen when people set their minds to it. And trust me, bars will be open.
