Wondered if there'd be any interest in this.  I'm an old-school geek to the point I joke about it.  But the love doesn't stop with age.

You know, we welcome older people at the Cthulhu for President panel...

I'd be down. Do you have any particular talking points in mind? I'm about to hit that dirty thirty this February so it'd be nice to see more oldies around

My thoughts would be:
1) General mindset.
2) Role in fandom.
3) Stuff we want and why.
4) Why we're here.

I'm an elder geek hitting 50 in awhile.  I've been involved in fandom on and off since my teens, so got a lot to talk on, inclluding evolving roles.

So with panels opening, anyone still interested in this?

You should try to host one!

I am 55 so I am interested in this panel.

Very curious if this was accepted. I'm an older fan myself and this would totally help to not feel quite so alienated among the Fanime crowd.
