No, I was making an observation.  I happen to think that having a
large quantity of such people around makes it an interesting
neighborhood.

I have better ways to spend Penguicon than asking 200 strangers who
they are.  That's what namebadges are for.  (Especially if I'm looking
for a specific person, maybe someone I'm on a panel with.  I can
glance at a couple of dozen large-print namebadges a lot faster than I
can ask the first person his name.)
