Credit Where Due

The problem with thanking people in public, like at a Worldcon Closing Ceremonies or a Guest of Honor Speech, is that you risk offending people either by omission or even by inclusion. I've managed to do this. [livejournal.com profile] bindyree takes me to task for this in her comments to my NASFiC Fan Guest of Honor Speech. Lest anyone be able to claim that I'm hushing something up -- who's going to read a thirteen-month-old LJ entry? -- I'm calling it to people's attention currently and apologizing for any offense I gave Brin-Marie by not discussing the several years we lived together and the importance of her work with the MythAdventures Fan Club and other fannish endeavors in which I was involved in that period.

You are much nicer than I.

Uhh....

Her blog entry, her responses to you...

It has been at least 15 years...

You are much nicer than I might have been in the manner which you responded.

I frankly found her comments... disturbing.

Creepy. Stalkeresque.

You are not a major movie star who forgot his old friends- You were a fan GoH honoring his limited time for a speech.

As I said in the parking lot a few Mondays back: Almost painfully ethical.
