[islandlabs] Last Meeting of the Year

[Jonathan Dahan]

We are meeting tomorrow for sure. Neat to hear about other conventions too,
I am not so well-versed in the history of them or relative excellence,
though it seems Lee no longer does SciTech so we would have to contact them
directly ( scitech at iconsf.org ), making it all the more urgent.
