RIP:
Frank M. Robinson (1926-2014), US sf author since 1950, noted for The Power
(1956; filmed 1967), The Dark Beyond the Stars (1991) and the art book Science
Fiction of the Twentieth Century (1999), died on 30 June aged 87. His
technothriller The Glass Inferno (1974) with Thomas N. Scortia was half the
source of The Towering Inferno. He received SFWA's 'Special Honoree' career
award in 2014.
GUFF: Gilian Polack is the 2014 delegate who travels from Australasia
to Loncon 3.
70 Years Ago, our fannish forebears wrestled with terminology: 'Fantast?
Stefan? Futurian? Stefnist?
Fantaisist? Slan? Cosman? Steffist? [...] Interlineations on the other
side of this sheet consist of alternative titles in place of that horrible
phrase "science fiction fan". (Bob Gibson wants to know if Sax Rohmer's "Si-Fan
Mysteries" have any connection) ...' (Futurian War Digest 35, June 1944)
