...and that are presented well. What we want are panels that generate
buzz, that attendees tell their friends about afterwards.

That isn't to imply that only "celebs" can do these types of panels,
but that the presenter matters at least as much as the subject.

Although to muddy the waters a bit, what would people think about
recording panels and releasing them as podcasts later? I know Eric B.
has done this with a few panels, and the Pulp Gamer guys (who are in
Arizona, by the way) did it for a ton of panels at GTS. It might be a
good way for people to sample what we have to offer without committing
a ton of time upfront.
