"In My Opinion"
This is the place in our 'zine where you, the reader, get your chance to sound off about whatever bugs you. It doesn't matter whether it's connected to a Con, another 'zine or what, as long as it has some sort of connection with our small universe of Sci-fi/Fantasy. There is no limit as to length or severity.
First letter excerpt: "I hate those damnable fashion statements where every character in any given fanzine story is fashionably skull-faced skinny, who has never in her or his life eaten anything solid."
Second letter excerpt: "Most fans that frequent sci-fi Cons forget about the small percentage of us that are handicapped. Being a person who has attended numerous Cons with the assistance of a wheelchair and/or a cane I've found, thorough personal experience, that 'normal, healthy' fans often don't consider how hard it might be for those of us that can only get about with some sort of assistance."
Third letter excerpt: "Conventions should not advertise months in advance ( so that out of town Con-goers must secure a thrifty-priced ticket ahead of time and put..the extra toward the money to travel to the Con location) a particular event, be it slide show or whatever, that is expected by Con-goers unless the event is actually going to take place."
