The Eyes Have It
Jun. 3rd, 2022 06:25 pmToday after work, I walked the three blocks to my optometrist for my annual eye exam. As I expected, my close-in vision needs just a slight increase in the prescription, while my distant vision appear to be unchanged. I got the order in for new glasses. They might arrive before Westercon. I hope it will reduce the amount of squinting I've been doing and make it easier to read things without having to swap into my computer glasses.
Meanwhile, I've been very busy today working on keeping the Westercon Programming Page updated. I discovered that the default way I pasted the information I've been getting (from Excel spreadsheets) to WordPress made the page effectively unusable on mobile devices like my iPhone. Thanks to some coaching from Cheryl, I was able to make the necessary changes so that it should be readable on mobile devices, although you will have to hold the device in "landscape" orientation in order to read it.
There's also a new release of the membership list and an update of our membership stats. I do not expect there to be any danger of us hitting the 450-person membership cap, particularly as we know that there are going to be no-shows. So if you still are considering coming, now would be a good time to buy your membership and book your hotel room, before our room block at the Mizpah Hotel expires.
