Hi, Carol!  I'm one of those people you met at Worldcon, and that
conversation motivated me to rejoin this list after far too long an
absence.  (I realize with a shock that it's been about four years.)  I've
been lurking for about two weeks now, and am still way behind on incoming
messages (as you can see by the fact that it's been nine days since you
posted the message I'm now replying to).  But I'm glad to be back, and hope
to become more of an active participant after I get caught up.
