A week or so ago Kevin was in Reno for a train-related event. He took the opportunity to stay at one of the hotels that will be used for Worldcon, and to look around the area. He has posted a number of reports on his LiveJournal. Here are links to some of them.

• A look at the Atlantis Hotel
• A warning about altitude
• A tour of the Worldcon site
• Some information for smokers (and those who wish to avoid them)
• Advice for those who wish to gamble while in Reno

And while I’m linking to Kevin, he has also, in response to discussions elsewhere, drafted a motion that would require amendments to the WSFS constitution to be ratified by popular vote. Kevin and I both think this is a good thing in the long term, in that it allows more people to be involved in the decision-making process, and provides some balance between the vast majority of fandom and those who care enough about WSFS to participate in the Business Meeting. However, we have more important fish to fry in Reno so unless someone else wants to bring this forward it is unlikely to be discussed in the short term.
