Re: Why still nothing on Hunter

Let me relate a true story from a comics convention a few years ago.  A 
well-known artist had been booked to appear throughout the weekend.  His 
flight from New York was delayed, and the airline didn't mention that the 
flight was actually being cancelled.  However, many people got wise and 
used their cell phones or portable computers to change to a later 
flight.  He did not.  When they officially announced the cancellation, he 
went to the counter and reserved a seat on a later flight that 
evening.  After waiting a long time, he was told the flight was full, and 
he'd have to wait until tomorrow.  By that time, there was no room on the 
other airlines.  He booked a ticket at his own expense on another airline, 
finally got out the next day, and arrived at the convention early that 
afternoon.

So I can easily see how Hunter might have gotten stuck wherever he was.

(BTW, the artist never once grumbled or complained, going out of his way to 
make the convention experience fun for everyone he encountered.  Easily the 
classiest thing he's ever done.)
