Sunday at Midnight - or rather at 12:01am Monday Morning, CONvergence will hold a panel to honor and remember Michael Sheard and others from our community who have been lost in recent years. This is technically an official CONvergence event taking place on Monday, making CONvergence 2008 at FIVE DAY con. Michael would be so pleased.

Here's the write up from the Programming Guide:
Monday 12:01am
Michael Sheard Five Day Memorial Panel
MainStage/Grand Ballroom East

The late, great Michael Sheard made a huge impact in his two years as a CONvergence Guest of Honor, including his infamous call for a five day convention, so it seems only fitting that the panel officially taking place on our fifth day would be in his honor. We will take time to remember Michael and other members of our community who are no longer with us and celebrate those who still are. Join us for the last official event of CONvergence 2008! FIVE DAYS! Video Team, Anton Petersen, Tim Wick
