Back issues of Tales being hard to find...
- ------------------------------------------
Definitely the truth. Issue 1 had a print run of 240 and issue 2 was only
200. Almost all of these were bought by the English rather quickly.
The Reaching Moon megacorp has done limited official copies and sold them
at Convulsion in 96 and in Chicago in 97. David Gadbois used to sell
official photocopies in the states when he was the Tales US distributor.
When "Best of Tales", which covers issues 1-6, comes out this summer
it should satisfy some of the demand for the back issues.
The truth about photocopying is shocking...
- -------------------------------------------
Not really. Most of us have always known it happens. Many of us have done
it. I don't feel I've learned anything new about the situation. Whether
it happens more or less in one country or another doesn't make it any
more right or wrong. No reason to dwell on it.
Laurent feels I don't understand him...
- ---------------------------------------
Call it a huge assumption, but I believe I do understand his frustration.
It was a long time before I was able to buy several Gloranthan items that
other Gloranthaphiles had and I really wanted (even though there wasn't
much in them). My offer to try and help find out-of-print items for
people still stands. Two people looking is better than one.
I found it interesting that Laurent and I are the same age (31).

The German RQ Con is quickly approaching. It has a real cool list of events,
freeforms, and seminars for Gloranthans of all ages. It even has an auction
that has prices that are close to reasonable. I'll buy a drink for
every Frenchman who makes the trip and is a first timer to the con.
Contact Fabian Kuechler for details on the con. Contact me for details
on the free drink. The Con is May 29th to June 1st, 1998. Bacharach is very
close to the french-German border.
