Greetings Earthlings.

*Gives Vulcan salute*

Hi everyone, I'm very much looking forward to geeking-out with you all next October. I'm completely obsessed with Doctor Who, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Star Wars, Firefly, anything to do with zombies, and SFX magazine (UK's leading sci-fi/fantasy magazine)... I'm a blogger for the website. And I'm going to try to snag some cool give-away presents from the SFX office, to hand out at the convention...

Because we're all geeks here, I know we'll all get along great. Roll on October, 2010!

-Kell x

PS. Help me get the coolest geek in the world, David Bradley (editor of SFX) to come HAL-CON! He's very much considering coming along, but just needs a little bit more of a push. You can beg and plead him to come at this email: dbradley@futurenet.co.uk

Thanks, and may the Force be with you...

Salut, I am Jenny. I am totally pumped for October. I have already booked my vacation time off of work and will be looking forward to geeking out for a whole weekend. I have never really been to a con before, so this will be my maiden voyage. My friend was the one who told me about it. She pretty much had me at Sic-fi convention.... Then when she mentioned Tom Servo she knew there was no going back....

[Amanda S]

Welcome Jenny!!

I hope we do well for your maiden voyage, and we are looking forward to seeing you there.
