[Edu] Just picking your brains...

[Magi D. Shepley]

I did know that, but I'm already a customer and I attend SF conventions. 
;)  I found out at one of the Pop Tart Cafe's at Balticon... 
I hope to make use of the discount for a set of Nanofictionary cards at 
Balticon this year, so I have time to experiment and learn the game 
before the next school year.
However, if you were able to get school districts to list the brochure 
or education supply stores, Borders (if they still sell Fluxx?) or other 
game stores... THOSE teachers might not know.  Putting the coupon on the 
flyer would definitely attract attention.  I know that my mother and 
some other relatives as well as friend's of my mothers pick up stuff 
like that for me.
