Marmota Watch, Con Edition

In keeping with my convention tradition of having the most outlandish conversations with famous and important people, on Sunday I spent several minutes talking marmota with Chuck Rozanski, owner of the country's largest comic retail operation, Mile High Comics. The Mile High mascot is Captain Woodchuck, defender of marmots and pikas throughout the world (although he is technically a yellow bellied marmot, not a woodchuck), so it was only natural that we would start talking rodents. OK, perhaps other people would have taken that time to discuss the comics industry and how he manages to keep a successful comics retailer going when so many comic shops are going under. Me, I decide to go with woodchuck-human relations.
