[UUPoly-L] UUPA literature at SF conventions

[alan7388 <alan7388@gmail.com>]

I just got back from the Arisia science fiction convention in Boston,
attendance 2,000. The con had three well-attended poly panels, 50 - 70
people at each.

On the freebie literature rack by the registration desk, I put out
several bunches of flyers about different poly groups and events.
Interesting datum: The UUPA flyer (the one titled "Polyamory in
Liberal Religion") got picked up by convention-goers quite a bit
faster than any of the others (a Poly Boston flyer, a general-purpose
"What is polyamory?" handout, one for the upcoming Poly Living con in
Philadelphia, and one for Florida Poly Retreat put there by someone
else).  This despite the fact that SF fandom is highly irreligious (by
American mainstream standards) and UUism has nothing to do with
science fiction (though one could argue).

A similar experiment at last year's Arisia had the same result.

This says to me that we oughta routinely get our flyers onto the
freebie racks at SF cons. Anyone know how to do this by mail? Anyone
wanna pick up this ball and run with it? Or suggest how I could?

Cheers,

Alan
