  • from the last editorial:
    So many of you have written expressing your regret at the club's closure and thanking us for running IDIC that you have made us feel quite guilty! However we still feel that we are closing the club at the right time. We are getting very stale and really need a break;and we would rather finish with a newsletter that we think you will enjoy than let the newsletters decline in standard. We have also seen both Beyond Antares and Spotlight on Leonard Nimoy closing down recently, possibly for much the same reasons, They were both good clubs and will be missed. We must point out that the success of the newsletter has not been due solely to us but to all of you who have contributed to them and we would like to thank regular contributors (in particular) for their input. Other than compiling news, what we have tried to so is give you a platform to communicate with each other and to share your joy of Star Trek.

  • a fan comments on how scarcity was a plus:
    The profusion of Trek on TV, in magazine, novels, merchandise, are the factors that are not destroying, but weakening, the cohesiveness or fandom. In the 70s we had so very little, virtually nothing in my area, so if we wanted more Trek, we had to work at it ourselves. That produced a family feeling, an immense network of contacts. Today, all you need do is lean back, choose a video or whatever, go to the local bookshop, and you can walk back home, "prey" firmly in hand.

  • another fan agrees that less was best:
    …fandom has changed (and not for the belter) over the last few years and we have lost something for it. Haven't you noticed how nostalgic we are all getting for the Good Old Days, when we had nothing and, basically, had to make our own entertainment? (zines, pictures, filk, costumes, cocktails....) But we had more tun doing it! I hope we can get back to that again…

  • a German fan writes:
    [This newsletter] helped me a lot to improve my English, and when I rend the new N/L I always felt at home. During the last years when ST and its fandom changed, IDIC remained a constant, something I always felt I could trust. And it never disappointed me. Of course the N/L changed during the years, but the spirit always remained the same. It is hard to express what IDIC really meant to me. Nevertheless I accept your decision. Eight years is a long time and means much work. I know this is our club. Of course there are many interesting moments I really enjoy, but there is also dull and boring work like licking 900 stamps every month. At the moment I still enjoy the work but I don I know how I will feel about it alter doing it for 8 years, I think I will join another British club after IDIC closes since I don't want to lose contact with British fandom. I consider joining STAG, or perhaps one of the members will manage to publish a letterzine in the spirit of IDIC.
