Strange how the world works. I find 20six via DotJournalism, then find BlackRat‘s blog (the guy writing some fascinating stuff about Iraq after a trip there). I link to that on my blog and he reads about me editing RAF Magazine and gets in touch.
It’s the kind of thing that makes SF fans like me wonder about parallel universes. The What Ifs always start rattling round my head and send me racing for the latest book on quantum physics.
