Opening remarks at the 2009 Rhysling Awards (+ surprise!)

This is me July 11, 2009, acting in my traditional role as MC of the Rhysling Award Reading at ReaderCon in Burlington, MA. Because of a couple of conflicting obligations -- dressing up for the ceremony vs. a promise I'd made to wear a specially made T-shirt -- I decided to open the Rhysling Award ceremony with a little bit of an extra flourish. Amazingly, no one ran screaming. In fact, several people broke out cameras... (Video by Anita Allen).

But what does the t-shirt say? I can't see in the video.
