Japanese Excitement in
Glasgow
(August 2005)
At the WorldCon in Glasgow in
August (2005), the Japanese held a party to promote
the WorldCon in Yokohama in 2007, some of the women
dressing as clockwork chambermaids with big keys in
their backs. Delirium erupted when one of them read
my badge. "Orgasmachine! Orgasmachine!"
they chorused, waving their hands in mock-terror and
excitement. When I go to Yokohama in 2007, what awaits
me?
