[GZG] [CON] GZG ECC XIII Quote Board

Hey everybody,

Sorry for the lateness in this - Real Life (tm) has taken a hold of me,
which is why the website hasn't been updated with all the AARs, photos, and
things.

But, to tide you over in the meantime, here's the transcribed quote board.

As usual, we take no responsibility for spelling mistakes, transcription
errors, embarrassment caused, etc. etc. etc... you came into the con room,
you automatically waived your rights.  (8-)

Enjoy!

JGH
