How sure are you that it was a spoof?

Let's not forget to thank Mike Whyman, who has been holding the fort as editor for far longer than he ever expected.

Now - whose arm can we twist for a set of articles?

For all of you puzzled by FACE THE MUSIC ...

I understand that Jan did an interview with its author during BIAFF and that the video of that (shot by Alistair Biggar) will be on the BIAFF website soon. She wants to send it to Noah Greis for his approval before publication.
