MarsCon 2014 Announced: Time is the Key

MarsCon 2014 in Minnesota has been announced. It will be March 7-9, 2014.
Their theme will be Time is the Key.  

 The planned Guests of Honor include:
*Actor: J. G. Hertzler — General (later Chancellor) Martok on ST:DS9
*Author: Esther Friesner
*Artist: Mickie Erickson
*Costumer: Rae Lundquist
*Fan Group: IKV RakeHell
*Music: Henry Phillips
*Prop Masters: Dave Duca & Michael Glielmi
*Science Guest: Bridget Landry of NASA’s JPL

More details to follow. MarsCon is one of the few major science fiction conventions in the Midwest (and arguably, the country) to have actively programmed Lao and Southeast Asian-themed panels proposed by and presented by Lao and Southeast Asian Americans.

We're considering what we can present within this year's themes for sure. It seems fairly obvious to do a panel on decolonized time, based on many of our previous discussions on the subject. But what else might we consider?
