Bubonic and pnemonic forms are endemic to New Mexico.  Not to worry! Life
goes on.  Party on!  We named our science fiction convention after a
variety. Our mascot is Perry Rodent and our motto is New Mexico: the Land
of the Flea and the Home of the Plague.

In August, we will celebrate Bubonicon 30. The GOH is Jane
Linskold (al-Barran) the artist GOH is Dave Martin (Dragonspine, I
think?).  The toastmaster is John E. Stith (Caerthe).  Attending are:
Walter Jon Williams (south of Al-B), Bob Vardeman (al-B), Suzee McKee
Charnas (al-B), George RR Martin (Drgystan), Pati Nagle (MS Elinor Aurora,
al-B), Snail Scott (MS Sairlaeth, sp?), Melinda Snodgrass (north of al-B)
and very likely, Jack Williamson. 

Come in costume.  Elizabethan Klingons are always welcome at the Saturday
night masquerade -- and anywhere else Klingons want to go.  We are still
pondering prizes for hall costumes.

E-mail me privately for more detailed information.
