Day Guest the Third
Satellite 8 is delighted to announce that Professor Ira Pollof from the University of Amaurot will be joining us on the Monday of the convention. Prof Pollof will give a talk on Mendacium, a source of conventional energy concentrated in Con Bars. This confluence of uplifting conviviality can provide a convenient constant energy source for continually levitating objects that could previously fly only intermittently e.g. Santa's Sleigh. Ira will conclude that, with concerted application of Mendacium, it con indeed be Christmas every day.
