Re: GZG _West Coast_ Con - Coming Soon ...

I would be interested in seeing a GZG convention in the SF Bay area.
I don't play Dirtside or Stargrunt, and I've only played FT a few times,
but
I would love to attend, schedule permitting.  I'm in the Sunnyvale area
myself (about 10 miles from San Jose).
