Science Blogging Conference 2007: Who is Coming? (Left-Handed Peg-Legged Pre-School Skateboarders with Lop-Sided Antlers), aka, "Twitting Bora"

Alan Kellogg has a cool contest for you:

Bora still has some 55 days to go before the conference, and still he posts about the folks coming. Will he have groups and/or individuals to write about by the time the conference gets here? Not to worry, Bora will find conference goers to write about, the question is who?

That is for us to make wild, inaccurate guesses about. In this contest,Twitting Bora, it is your goal to come up with the wildest, most outrageous, least likely participants at the Science Blogging Conference. Who (or what) will Bora announce as being at the conference this year the day before the conference starts?

Post your badly ill informed ideas here or in your blog (with a link here to it) The one that gets the most (and the most inventive) ballot box stuffing gets something. I have no idea what, all I can afford is a post pointing to your idea, and warning people about the other disgusting habits you have.

This comment brought to you by, Daffy Duck; who once said something a lot like, "How enthusiastic can you get?"

OK, the prize for the author of the most outrageous group of people and the collective title for them is an item of your choice from my CafePress store. Make sure you do not include people who have registered for real. Shoot!
