Today, I'm getting over a cold (or so I'm telling myself) and trying to study for tomorrow's final. I'm really excited that IROSF is so far ahead of schedule this month.

What I really want now is an article that will stir up as much conversation as Kris Kathryn Rusch's Signals this month. Besides bringing a lot of people into the discussion, it brought a lot more people to the website, which is always great.

Unfortunately, my head is so clouded with finals week (and this damn cold) that I don't know what that article might be. Hopefully it will come to me.

Hmmmmm.... possible controversial topics...

The Sci-Fi channel "rebranding" itself to SyFy, to avoid being associated with us geeks. For some top-selling science fiction authors, being re-branded as "action suspense thrillers" rather than SF -- without any actual change in content -- was seen as a huge career step up. Are they traitors or just savvy? Have we painted ourselves into a smelly corner that no one wants to enter?
