Bear in Charge

Bear is very important and has his own membership badge.

He has an actual full-size badge, too, but it's too big for him. And he voted in Site Selection yesterday, too, although we were careful to have him visibly vote No Preference because people get unhappy about stuffed bears casting ballots. I know; I was there in 1990 in The Hague when there was a good-sized flap about such things and an amendment to the WSFS Constitution because of it.

We were able to get a badge for a Gund bear in '86 at Norwescon 9 (art by Michael Whelan) - but no plastic frame for it. His number between ours was like, 1012.5, 'twixt 1012 and 1013, or some such.
