Praise then darkness, and creation unfinished

minnehaha K posted last week [1], unhappy about the trend for con committees to sit behind email like chair@example.org and artshow@example.org with no name given.

A flyer for Lunacon turned up in the mail today. Two people working on the convention are identified: the Filk Mistress and the Regency Dance Master. Not, say, the chair, or the people running the dealers' room, art show, or registration.

The only reason I'm confident that there is a con chair is that she, he, it, or they takes credit for creating the convention flyer.

cattitude is poking around online as I write this, and reports that most of the articles on the website are credited to "chair" (still unnamed).

[1] Thanks for reminding me of who, fredcritter.
