Really! Well, then, shall we raise the stakes, and add a cream pie (of the loser's choice) at ten paces to the bet? :) Oh, goddess. I want to emcee this event in the worst way. And I know exactly how to do it -- like a herald reading cartels of defiance at a joust. Gentlemen, you've got yourself a master of ceremonies and a frame of comic patter, if you want it. For this I might even put on a tuxedo...

Argh! The very thought of that is making me want to gouge my eyes out. :)

Seriously, this is something we'll have to work out with the conference folks. Wouldn't surprise me if they may have someone in mind, or if not we go with some semi-independent person. (Perhaps some bitter Lisp hacker that hates all of us because everyone's more successful than Lisp... :)
