Fahim was once denied a visa. They might, though not necessarily, grant him one now that he's married to a Canadian.

Gee, someone's been paying attention. Yeah, in theory, they'll probably let him have a visa into Canada now, providing we actually translate our marriage certificate into English, which we haven't done yet, and provide it to the Canadian High Commission. But then you're assuming that I want to go back to Canada. Well, for a visit, sure, but definitely not to stay. I like it here. Although I'd be willing to live in other countries, too. Maybe Thailand, or Belize, or Algeria, or Morocco, or Peru, or Chile, or Egypt, or Kuwait, or Dubai, or . . .
Tourism is happening again in Sri Lanka. Not in the coastal areas so much because there's a lot of reconstruction work to be done, but in Colombo and the centre of the country and the cultural triangle, it's all back to normal. So yes, y'all can come for LankaCon anytime! Party on!

Ok well, since I've yet to touch this topic yet..
I've met only OSC and Mrs K. She was the one to prod me out and actually be a person instead of a shadow here.
I've yet to attend any Cons.. altho I would love to do that... I wonder if there's any Enderverse/OSC Meetups nearby?
For the record, I've lived only an hour or two (at the most) from the Cards since 1984. (I think.. when did OSC set up shop in Gbo?) Even when I enlisted, I still ended right back to being an hour or so from the Cards.. only in the opposite direction So anyhow.. still I wonder about those OSC Meetups
*goes off to search cos being bored is.. boring (and it sucks monkeys)*

You can ask rivka, who I met last November, and now you can also ask romanylass, who I met last week when she and her family came by to visit me while they were visiting in Fresno.

Man, I should keep notes. I vouch for all these people. If I've forgotten anyone, let me know. Did this off the top of my head, with a little help from Nathan's list. Don't think I'm as big a nerd as he is yet, but I'm probably an easy second.
It's funny that the clumps I haven't met are the Utah and Oregon ones. And I haven't met the other Hatracker in my city!

I like the idea that my list of Hatrackers I'm related to is probably longer than many people's lists of Hatrackers they've met. Heck, last night there were four of us at my place eating chinese food and watching Firefly, that's practically a Con!
Also, I've met more Hatrackers before I was actually registered than I have since. I warp reality.

I think this is it, so under 100 after all. I'm going to meet msquared this weekend, though! I keep getting the feeling I'm still missing someone. . . my apologies if so.

I'm about to embark on a three year tour over there. So I'll be stuck in the West Pole without many places to venture off to.

I just took Frisco's list and took off a few people and put on a few people. I figured since we were both at KamaCon and the wedding they'd have a lot of overlap, and they did. . .

Yeah, those lists are prodigious. I can't remember on what page I first posted who I've met, and the list has increased since then. Posts: 5771 | Registered: Nov 2000

What's Frisco really like? I'm sure he won't give me a straight answer, and I find him interesting. Also, I don't remember if I ever told you before but I love your name. If you look on the HP questions thread I mentioned wanting to live in you!

Since we have 3 Hatrackers living in our house, anyone from Hatrack-- or who joins later-- who comes over to visit is now instantly real. Wow. Scary! That also applies to all the married couples and roommates and everything else on Hatrack, of course. But I just realized it.

I think it take meeting two already real people to make you real. Otherwise you could just have multiple personalities Posts: 1015 | Registered: Aug 2004

I have no idea what my list would be. Everyone but the New England clump and the Northwest clump, I think.

I'm not sure but i think that after this last weekend i will go down as fastest to become real registered hatracker. With only 2 posts to my name I am real.

Replace "Corwin" with "pepinaso"/"Steve" in pepinaso's list, and you have mine.
Oh, and hi, Steve! I'm glad you and kat arrived ok. I'm not sure about the "fastest to become real" part... Depends on how you define the rules for becoming real, for example if you already met two real hatrackers when you sign up here you're already real. Complicated, huh? Anyway, you're real, that's what matters! Posts: 4519 | Registered: Sep 2003

What i mean by fastest is from the time that i registered to the time that i met other hatrackers was less than 24 hours. i say thats preety good.
