November 19-21, 2010	Steamcon II	Seattle Airport Marriott, 3201 South 176th Street, Seattle, Washington and (neighboring - both at SeaTac airport) Hilton Seattle Airport & Conference Center, 17620 International Blvd, Seattle, Washington	Greetings chrononauts, aviators, tinkerers, scientists and steampunk enthusiasts! We at Steamcon Central are toiling tirelessly to bring you an even more spectacular convention than our first quite successful Steamcon last October. This year’s steamposium will highlight the Weird Weird West or American steampunk, if you will. Imagine the age of steam on the wild frontier. You are invited to explore with us the world of roughriders on mechanical horses, mad inventors, mystical Indian shamans, and mighty steam locomotives. Picture airships instead of stagecoaches, and the precision of robotic sharp shooters. If western steampunk doesn’t appeal, there will still be lots of classic steampunk to partake of as well.
