You'd have a point if I had spoken in the past tense, and you're
correct only where you use the past tense. For instance, TANSTAAFL
died with Freon, after an abortive attempt to hand it off to me. Can
you point out any fanzine fandom to me? I suggested a panel topic for
ConFusion, "Internet Killed The Fanzine Star", and it is on the
schedule; I look forward to discussing this with you there.
