Sorry to hear of the shortcomings, but it sounds like you got a lot of good things out of it, too. I ran into that with the writer's conference I used to go to (which is why I stopped after a couple of years).

WisCon sounds cools, and hey, what's wrong with tying your interest in speculative with your desire to be more involved with activism?

Yeah, there was definitely enough good to make me glad I went this year, but I'll be looking around to see what other academic conferences provide what I'm looking for.

WisCon would be cool, but it focuses on a specific category of cultural texts - which I love and would have fun with, but it's not ground-level fieldwork activism, and I want to expose myself to that more. Sooo, maybe WisCon *and* NWSA/a NWSA-replacement conference? I could make a budget for that ...
