[Deptheads] Guest of Honor/Special Guests for Gamex

[Eric Burgess]

I've chatted with Martin Wallace before, too. I can reach out to him. I'm
surprised Paul didn't suggest Richard Breese, too (Reef Encounter, Key
Harvest, Aladdin's Dragons). He knows him as well. I think Wallace would be
a much bigger draw.

Hope I wasn't the one who infected everybody - I had bronchitis the week
before the con...I guess I gave out more than game demos...
