The gingerlessness, I should clarify, is because young ginger, still in art school, saw a plug for LGM 2007 on (I believe) the Inkscape site and thought "Awesome! That's just a few metro stops from home. I should go." then went for a few hours, felt overwhelming feelings of outsiderness (the issue of "no one like me is here") and went home. Thought about the experience for two years, came back in 2009 and talked about it. Just to give a little extra perspective on the outsider issue.<br>

</div>2007... Er...<br>
<br>
We surely do better every year then, because I've just checked my<br>
pictures from 2007 (few hundreds) and I find them quite gingerless.<br>
Whereas 2009 and 2010 pictures are, on the contrary, gingerful (in<br>
moderation).<br>
