This Never Happens - Episode 7 This Never Happens
-
- Society & Culture
Warning: much of this recording contains cheese. We start with our impressions of Punctuation, the online convention. After 28 mins of that we give Alison Scott a chance to tell us stuff we got wrong in TNH6. We finally cover the 1987 TAFF report by Jeanne Gomoll at 32 mins before commenting on e-books vs real books at 49 mins, TV vs YouTube at 52 mins and the new netiquette for Zoom seminars. That gives way to reminiscing about songs from our university days and Lilian's first date 1 hour in. After that we have the return of Erratum Corner starting at 63 mins. Whew!
The episode artwork is by Dave Harwood and was used as the cover of TNH 7 in 1985.
We also had even more errata from Claire in Croydon. (We do seem to get a lot of things wrong!)
Claire writes: Here's some fan history that might still be interesting because you were there:
* Lucid dreaming with Graham Joyce took place at the 1992 Eastercon in Blackpool (Illumination)
* Lilian and Christina were at Year of the Teledu (2007) rather than Year of the Wombat (1997), although Ian was an early adopter and one of the Real Fans who we were all mystified & wanted to come to Inconsequential in 1992
* Tobes was crucified at the opening ceremony of Damn Fine Con (2002), after which James and Stef were keen to sell off the opportunity to lick him for the benefit of the fan funds; I don't recall whether any funds were actually raised that way...
