    Which movie is the clip of the two gents on the beach with briefcase from? This could solve a long-term mystery of mine. Thank you kindly.

    The writing is brilliant and amusing. Rachel reads well and clearly and in a matter-of-fact way which adds credence to what is, of course, fantasy. (On the other hand a little magic in Ottawa would not hurt!)

    I took the opportunity to listen once again to this Opera Teaser today now that I've had my upgraded hearing aid for three weeks. What a difference in the sound quality! I can really look forward now to hearing the live performance of Morrow's Isle at the Glasgow 2024 Worldcon on August 8, 2024.

    I had the pleasure of watching this live and getting to engage in the chat via zoom. Fascinating discussion about the conjunctions and conflicts between paganism as a general group of practices/faiths and the horror genre. What makes it 'scary' to people, why does it get used so often with so little research, and do we need to 'reclaim' the term or just educate and move forward expecting better representation.

    At the first Glasgow Worldcon, in 1995, a free book of short stories by local writers was given away. It was called Shipbuilding.
