You can ...use....this....code....

...Vijay beat me to it.

I will be there as well. If you're stalking Ji....er, if you're attending his panels, I'm on two of them with him, feel free to say hi.

PS: The adapting novels should be a really good panel. You all of course know Jim and how good he is at speaking, his co-panelist, Mat Johnson, is a guy I know from NPR and is quite the speaker. Should be a great panel with both of them talking about this.

To Vijay and Mickey Finn:

Should Jim say something interesting, unexpected or possibly revealing; please feel free to post something about it in the spoilers section.  It's always nice to have some new ideas or clues to discuss.  There might be someone who shoots video of Jim's panels and posts it in on YouTube in a few days, but then again that might not happen.
