Plus ça change...

It can be amusing reading old fanzines. For reasons closely related to this post on SFFANZ news I found myself reading From Scratch "Tu" by Nigel Rowe in 1991. It has the usual fanzine stuff, but my eye was drawn to three things:

• A line in the lead item reading "When one considers the absolute crap that passes for SF today it is easy to understand how things have come to be focused more on the media connection".
• An article discussing whether FFANZ has any point and any future as a fan fund.
• A discussion of a NZ bid to host a worldcon.

I think my déjà vu is kicking in.
