		Hi there!
		I and my scifi club here in the Western Massachusetts area are
sponsoring a scifi/fantasy convention on the last weekend of March, with 
writing, comics and (hopefully) Star Trek guests, as well as a Society for 
Creative Anachronism demonstration, roleplaying-gaming (including a multi-media
ST:TNG-based game which promises to be unique if nothing else) and discussion
groups.
		 It's still early enough in the planning stages that we have
time to entertain good ideas for how to make this a lot of relatively 
inexpensive fun (which we know it will be, since most people in our planning 
group are experienced con-goers and we all know that a lot of the most
successful cons are the fan-run ones). 
		So. If y'all could take about 10-15 minutes of your valuable
time to e-mail me directly about what you like best and least about cons, your
most memorable experiences with cons, the most innovative, creative or just
plain common-sense things you've seen offered/done, etc. then we can make our
own convention that much better. Also, if you could possibly forward this
request to experienced con-goers (or organizers) that you know of so I can get
their responses as well, I'd be much obliged. 
		Finally, opening question: does $25 for a weekend and $15/day
sound reasonable for a 2-day con?

                                        Thanks,
					Chris
