I have no affiliation with this convention and I'm not receiving a
kickback for posting this: I just like the idea. And this year I'll
be able to go! To clarify: there's a lot of overlap between fans of
OSS and SF, this is the sixth year for this convention, and Troy is
essentially a suburb of Detroit.
