For the Record
Convention Awareness Day 2006 , originally
scheduled for January 14th and then "Spring," has been cancelled but should return in 2007.
Cole Houston, the organizer, said he ran into scheduling and logistical difficulties but the event
will almost certainly happen next year. San Antonio
Comic-Con , a media and comics show in San Antonio, Texas, has let its domain expire and is not
responding to e-mails so with some regret we've pulled them from the calendar.
Shiokazecon , a Houston anime convention, announced in
September that it wound not be returning for 2007. The organizers say circumstances beyond their
control have forced them to put the return of this first-year con on indefinite hiatus.
The DC-3 in 2011 Worldcon bid for Washington, D.C., has
allowed their domain to lapse and the committee has apparently shut down entirely.
