Let me make this as clear as possible - the next person who says to me, in a matter-of-fact tone, that Continuum can't run a convention in 2010 because of the WorldCon, I will skin. I will then tan the hide, and wear it as a warning to others.
Given that the Worldcon in '99 knocked out Melbourne fandom for two years either side of its running, I should think it's even more important that we continue to operate.
