Posted by Denise on the BE board:

"Today was a positive day on many levels. We are working with The Hilton, the actors and lenders and we feel we are making some good progress. We know everyone is in a state of high anxiety. So are we, simply because we have always put on kick ass conventions and want to continue doing just that.

Thank you to everyone who has offered help, well wishes and prayers. Your positive energy and faith are so deeply appreciated, it's hard to adequately express our gratitude."

And thank you (praise them with great praise!) and your fellow Browncoats for preparing a hospitable welcome. IN the space of mere hours you have turned despair back into delightful anticipation.

For those closely following the drama closely (as I am--this being my first fan convention ever, after near 5 decades of life), the Southern California Browncoats have rallied the troops and are already organizing a "Back-up Bash", aka "Flan B". If Flan 2 is cancelled, there will be a gathering of Browncoats. Perhaps just an international Shindig, or perhaps something more: BDH guests, vendors, et al. [Hell, I'd go if we just watched DVD's or even sat around making Firefly/Seerenity shadow puppet theater].

The downright hospitality and neigborliness is truly awe-inspiring. And, checking the various mesage boards (including Fireflyfans.net), this has been joyously greeted and gratefully received.
AN essential part of being a Browncoat, imho, is dogged determination, infatigeable hope, and picking-yourself-up-by-your-own-bootstrap's action.

Booster Events may be going into the red, but we Browncoats are still dedicated to go, well...out into the Black.

I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Respectfully,
Bob

Figures. I posted this on the wrong Flan 2 thread.

Meant to go here: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=19&t=25560&m=418033#418033

However, if the BE crew can still pull this off as planned, I tend to be the forgivin' sort (though after a good keelhaulin')

Respectfully,
