I'm sure Dick was a guest at more than two cons, but that's all I can find. Can someone else fill that part out some more? And by the way, how do you search for references to a name? If I search for "Dick Eney", even putting it in quotes, I get taken directly to his page. Searching for references to him would likely have turned up more information about his guest history.

- As you type in the search box, a list appears. At the bottom, it says “Containing...” Click there, instead of hitting return, to get internal search.
- There are a lot of references to Eney in Fancy, but it doesn’t appear that he was goh anywhere but LAcon that we know of.
- BTW, con names alone in the recognition list imply a goh. If somebody was a “special guest” or “keynote speaker,” or something, that should be spelled out. Toastmaster is a job, though, not an honor.
