Why Chris Butcher Won't Be At The Hyatt During CCI 2008, And Why You Might Not Want To Go, Either

Because hotel developer Doug Manchester (the Manchester in Manchester Grand Hyatt, one assumes) recently donated a six-figure sum in support of an amendment that may threaten California's lifting of a ban on same-sex marriage. The prominent blogger and retailer's one-man refusal to hit the popular CCI nightstop (he admits freely that no one is likely to be able to change a hotel reservation at this late date) will supplement a more concerted effort to draw attention to the move being made by local activists.

I know that it's almost impossible to think that another place will be found for comics' annual feel-slightly-less-miserable carnival of hand-shaking, drink-buying and overall basking in each others' assumed mutual awesomeness, but I wanted to mention it here because I thought it might make a difference to some of you.
