Time, as you know, is nature's way of keeping everything from happening all at once. I've run short of time, so the rest of the week is happening all at once on the Infinite Matrix, in a jumble of Sterlings, Swanwicks, and Langfords.

I'm off to Wiscon, and will be back Monday evening with more Sterling.

In the meantime, don't miss Douglas Lain's excellent story The '84 Regress.

If you take a look at the thermometer, you can see that when I stopped drumbeating for contributions, they slowed to a trickle. I will resume drumbeating next week. Can't put out a webzine on cookies and milk.

If you've already donated, you have my deepest gratitude. If you haven't, and you like the site, our operators are standing by, at PayPal and Amazon.com.

Eileen Gunn is the editor and publisher of The Infinite Matrix. She also writes short stories, two of which have been nominated for the Hugo award. Her cryptic and hard-to-navigate personal site, Imaginary Friends, was a Cool Site of the Day way back in 1997.
