Some Comments

I attended Eagle Summit '94, which was a small event, about 50 people total. But this didn't diminish the impact of the event. Richard Chaves was more than willing to find time in what was a very busy schedule to spend time with the fans, signing autographs and speaking about his various roles and such. Personally, I found Mr Chaves to be a very charming and articulate gentleman.

I told you in the editorial what a great time I had at the conventions, particularly Eagle Summit. Richard Chaves is 100% better looking in real life than on tv or photographs and he was an unbelievable guest. He went kite flying, played crazy golf and came to a room party; but most of all he talked to the attendees as if they were people and not fans which must have been particularly hard for him as he has been stalked at least twice by obsessive fans. Believe me, if there is another Con next year I will be going! I enjoyed Zebracon as well, though it couldn't create the high I had with Eagle Summit...
