My apologies for the silence here the last two weeks. Family needs pulled me away from the keyboard. At the same time, there are some changes going on back here, behind the scenes, the results of which you’ll be seeing in the near future (more on that when it happens, but don’t worry, your SFScope experience won’t change).
At any rate, SFScope is coming back now. The next anticipated service interruption will be at the end of the month, when we’re off to Chicago for WorldCon (you did remember to cast your Hugo ballot, didn’t you?). But you’ll have a reminder before we go.
Thanks, as always, for your continued support. And now, back to ‘Scope.
—Ian, the Editor
