NOTES ON CHALL PALS #24
Our great friend, frequent Challenger contributon, and Melbourne host Craig Hilton is both doctor and cartoonist, and as "Jenner" is doing a comic strip called "Doc Rat" at http://www.docrat.com.au. Check same out.
Joe Green, NASA pro and Rosy's father, has been gratified by the fan response to his article on John W. Campbell, which ran in our last issue -- but even more so by the cheers from his fellow professionals: "Our Five Days of JWC JR." is being reprinted in the SFWA Bulletin. Joe's trying to get the editors to mention Challenger in the credits.
Joe Major's book on Heinlein is out and available through him, and his cool alternate history of Manfred von Richtofen is at a prominent SF publisher. I'm reading it on line, and it's choice.
Those of you who see this Chall before the Worldcon, or at it, be sure to find us and say hey, and be sure to pick up a copy of The Antipodal Route, our DUFF report detailing our trip downunder in 2003. All profit from such sales go to the Down Under Fan Fund. If you're reading this after the convention, contact me for the price and buy one! It's a good cause.
