I think it was 1959. At least, that's what I answered. It was right after you got written up in the fanzine io9.
And asking whose articles I like best was deeply unfair. I read them all, even if I might not be interested in their main subject matter, because that's the only way to learn new things.
And i'm over 20 years gone from Southern California. But if your travels ever take you east to visit the West, instead of west to visit the East, and you make it to Germany, we can have a little micro-con.
I phrased the question deliberately — it's not meant to be a competition. More a survey of what types of articles are interesting. I'm happy to report that we've gotten a wide range of answers.
The reason for the SoCal question is I'd love to gather us all together for a GalJoCon!
P.S. i09 was April, 1960. It's when we first "hit."
Make sure to use a sharp Number Two pencil, and fill in all the circles completely! You know how fussy computers are.

Darn, I thought I'd been here a lot longer when we started talking politics. Well, subtract one from 1959 and add one to 1960.
And if you ever do make it to Germany, it looks like Cora and I aren't too far apart geographically so a meet-up could be in the cards.
I'd certainly always be up for a meet-up.
