Many thanks for the birthday wishes Amy :-)
I also enjoyed "Sherlock Holmes and Science Fiction" - very interesting and well done!

Whoo hooo! going to see the movie at noon with my friend who is the mother of fantasy author Holly Black. My friend is the only one who's into this sort of movie, and given that...I can see why she was a great influence on her daughter.
