* This issue contains a one-page trib/flyer from two zine editors; it is an extremely angry, crudely written rant against BPG that takes her to task for Naked Doubles, for threatening fans with legal action, for her perceived paranoia and disingenuous threats, and more. One complaint: [BPG] is a fan "who rats to the PO about our private world of fandom..." The flyer begins with "[BPG], show this to the postal inspector!!"
