Indeed we did Slap.

I know I spent a good 20 minutes to a half hour in the lobby while Epsilon was at the Masquerade (I was doing the poker tourny and I couldn't get in the ballroom if I tried) and they were asking all different questions and they all seemed very interested and fascinated by us. To the point where they might go to AC next year just to check it out.

I remembered each flash as time began to blur
Like a startling sign that fate had finally found me

Sorry if i'm a bit late to this one, but yeah I watned to comment.

Personally I don't have a problem if i'm with a bunch of people. Call it strength in numbers or something. I mean are you more likely going to bother someone or some group of people? Just sad if you ask me, I mean I live on my own and wear my tail in here all the time. Still no one in the family knows. They saw the tail once and thought it was weird enough. Still didn't care. But sometimes I just think

"who gives a damn what the rest of the world thinks? To each His/Her own" I always say

RE: Presenting Furry Fandom to the Public
I have to say, this came into play before the Con even began this year; a middle aged gentleman and his wife, three kids ventured into the elevator in front of a bunch of us at the Courtyard; and as Kage predicted, he asked the universal question: What is all this? A few of the guys in the back started spewing drivel about furries and anthropomorphics, and he was visibly disturbed...confused didn't begin to describe it. And the furs who had answered his question seemed lost as to why it didn't satiate his interest. I held up my hand, and very calmly said" It's a cartoon convention..."...his attitude changed almost immediately. He said "Oh you mean the funny animals like Bugs Bunny and such?" It went exactly as Kage predicted, and in the end, we had hopefully made several new friends, and a few furs got a crash course in how to handle things...
