The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Do that in London and they'll pull a VISA card terminal out their bag and inform you that there's a 10% surcharge for credit cards! ;)

I did post this over in the USCM D*Con thread, but I think it'd be best in here.

After printing off the Pocket Guide:

http://publications.dragoncon.org/index.htm#Pocket

I'm having a little trouble reading the table of events. :?

Aliens Remembered (I'm guessing this is about our fav film) is shown as 5:30-7pm on Saturday, listed location is given as 'International North (H) MAIN'.

I've had a look at the maps and can't work out where that is. :oops:

Carrie Henn and Linda Blair are doing a panel called "I Was a Child Horror Star!" on Friday at 1pm.

Aliens remembered is billed as: "Join “Bishop” (Lance Henriksen) and Newt” (Carrie Henn) as they discuss their experiences making Aliens, the second installment of one of the most-popular sci-fi movie series ever. Lance Henriksen"

Also an Aliens themed table game session planned. Abe fancies that just to make a nuisance of himself!

Considering this panel is taking place after the Colony Sweep on Saturday I think it's safe to say most of us will be there geared up! 8) :D

Five years of D-Con... this is the first panel I've ever wanted to attend!

Personally I'm surprised D*Con didn't ask us to be there in a more official capacity.

Still, I'd love to attend if I can.

Seeing as I tend to always run panels at Vulkons I have no intention to attend the panel so I'm up for guarding the table.

The fan tables are in the Marriott on the lowest level below the lobby.

There will be maps and guides available at D-Con itself- I'm not sure what International North (H) MAIN is- but my guess is that it's Hyatt.

Looking at the maps today, it looks like it is the Hyatt International Level, Ballroom North, which is labelled on the map as 'Main Programming'. I'm guessing that they mean programme of events, not computer programming. :)

I'm staying in the Marriott too, so I can help out with the table whenever needed. The joys of not having a lot of spending money this con.

Nice one John. I'm sure the fan-table will be the hub of all Aliens Legacy activity so we'll all have plenty of company. I'll be sure to buy you a beer or three as well, nobody goes thirsty in this battalion! :)
