Fan Scratchings By Phia Bronson Yes, I'm borrowing your name, Gordy, for a few paragraphs, if you don't mind. The two-and-one-half wasted pages in the 12th issue of the MFS Bulletin which constitued Fortier's boresome drivel included a few points which I should like to clear up. 1. If Nebula and Fantasy Fiction Field contained Smith's change of address, I didn't receive those particular copies. Maybe I didn't read Califronia Mercury - the portions that were readable. Would you please specify, Joe, what the other two of the "five" mags that carried Smith's change of address were? Of course, benevolent Joe, "My Pal", couldn't have jotted me a postal with Smith's address on it - as long as he knew I wanted it. 2. "...... a good example of the discussed rejection......." indeed! The column which Fantasite rejected was well over 4,000 words! And it's easy enough to pick out the stfictional portions and write a short column from them. 3. That part on Harry Warnes, Joe, was not taken by me to constitute a sports discussion. You are still jumping to conslusions. I merely wouldn't print that part on Warnes, that's small. In not printing it, I thought I was doing you a fator. Fandom has seen so many of your warped viewpoints that I made a practice of excising them from Hell Fire in order to help the column along. (Now watch - in the next Hell Fire, I'll be made out a bigoted "news-suppresser") Any fan who could say the things about Warner's achievments that Joe does, and in such a manner, either has a mighty alien outlook on things, or is inwardly writhing with plain, old-fashioned ENVY. That's all for now, Joe. Of course, you realize that this should all be taken with a grain of salt ..... As Pals, we can still be friends, can't we? Did I hear somebody call me a "mimick"? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Published weekly at 221 Melbourne by John L Gergen. Price: 2 for 5c.
