San Diego did win the site selection for the 1986 Westercon.
The voting went as follows:
San Diego 147
Phoenix (write-in) 100
Vandenberg AFB 3
Hawaii 1
Nome (Alaska) of the above 5?
No Preference 9?
None of the above 7?
This is from memory, folks; those last numbers are only
approximate.
The Guest of Honor will be Dr. David Brin, author of the
much-discussed \Startide Rising/. The Toastmaster will be Greg
Bear, author of "Hard Fought" and "Blood Music" which won this
year's Nebulae for novella and novelette. Fan Guest of Honor
will be Karen Turner.
If you wish to contact anyone on the committee, please feel free
to send e-mail my way. I'm Co-chair of the '86 Westercon, and
I'll be happy to forward messages to the appropriate people.
Any comments, suggestions, inquiries, requests, and so forth
will be gratefully received (and acknowledged).
