It was great to get to meet Bridget, too! You're right about the extremely young age of the attendees - I got this feeling like, "The age of the Pokemon Generation is over! The age of the Manga Generation has begun!" Jack is my web designer! He’s also a MangaCast correspondent. It was great to get to meet Bridget, too!

My favorite part of the con was being able to meet and talk to so many people in the Artists Alley. I really wish I had thought of going to the Secaucus train station instead. A 12 minute train ride?? Geez. Unfortunately, I was following the advice of a hotel staff member who told me that the bus was the quickest way to NY. I guess he suggested it because the bus stop was right across the street. Oh, well. Now I know for next time! Ali, it was great meeting you as well!

It's a great piece of work. But I read your webcomic and was so dismayed to read how much of a hassle you had going home. Taxis from Jersey to NYC are always an expensive proposition, and buses transit is, well, never quite my cup of tea, but New Jersey Transit rail is pretty easy--especially from Secaucus into NYC. You still get the hassle of getting to GCT to connect to your final destination, but I figure a 12 minute ride by rail from Secacus to NYC beats a 40 minute bus ride... Tania:
