He\u2019s been ill recently and was unable to attend November\u2019s Doc Con. So it was great to spend a few hours visiting with him.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It turned out to be a very productive meeting. We set the dates, location and theme for <strong>Doc Con 13<\/strong>, and talked about sharing the organizing responsibilities, rather than laying it all on the shoulders of the host.<\/p>\n<p>Doc Con 13 will be Friday-Sunday, Nov. 12-14, at Glendale, Ariz. Friday evening will be the annual old-time radio re-enactment, held this year at <strong>Courtney Rogers<\/strong>\u2019 house. Saturday will be the day-long gathering, hosted by uber-<strong>Doc Savage<\/strong> collector <strong>Jay Ryan<\/strong>. The con ends Sunday morning with a breakfast at a local restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>Yours truly will be the event co-ordinator for Doc Con 13. I\u2019ll be putting together the Doc Con\u2019s Saturday schedule, so if you\u2019re interested in making a presentation, please let me know.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s theme is two-fold. We\u2019ll be celebrating the 70th anniversary of the debut of Street &amp; Smith\u2019s <em>Doc Savage Comics<\/em> and the 75th anniversary of the introduction of Chemistry the ape into the novels. (Well, \u201ccelebrating\u201d may not describe that last one very well.)<\/p>\n<p>You can keep up with developments through the <a href=\"http:\/\/groups.yahoo.com\/group\/Doc_Con\/\" target=\"_blank\">Doc Con group at Yahoo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Mark your calendar.
