I see via ANN that Zoom has been served his annual non-invitation!

The fact that so many see it on ANN is not helping the cause of the SnF folks. (or really Zoom). I think both sides would do better to let it go, but its more likely that I will catch a ride to Oshkosh on a supersonic flying pig. |

They would be happy leaving it as status quo- i.e. no zoom at SnF. Zoom's the one who can't give it up. My guess is that SnF would probably drop the ban if Zoom behaved nicely for a few years and stopped publishing the annual series of anti-SnF pieces. Today's selection was pitiful at best, with ANN taking plenty of implied shots at SnF just in the tone of their articles. KB |

Today's selection was pitiful at best, with ANN taking plenty of implied shots at SnF just in the tone of their articles. KB Unless you don't believe the ANN story about them taping multiple copies of the ban to the door of the ANN office, then you can't believe they have dropped it. Even if the story is embellished, it would be best for them to use a process server or professional delivery service rather than tape. I think there is plenty of anymosity on both sides, and if SnF were to let it go, they would simply let Zoom have his press pass and let him in to rant and rave however he sees fit. Better yet, keep him under unobtrusive surveillance so that if he starts any fights with anyone they have all the evidence they need to throw him out and deny him entrance forever. I met Zoom not too long ago, and frankly, I found him to be a rather meek and nerdy kind of guy. I bet I could raise his blood pressure with a stern look. The experience put the lie to both his self promoted test pilot image as well as many stores about his behavior. He did seem the type that would hide behind a lawyer though, so I can believe those tales. I understand he did a good job of ruining some businesses, and I can't blame anyone for taking action for being so maligned. Unfortunately, everyone who reads his reviews hasn't had a chance to meet him. |

I don't think SnF sent Zoom a notice reminding him that he was banned from the show last year. And, of course, Zoom entered SnF grounds, despite the fact that the ban was still valid, and despite the fact that he had an ongoing lawsuit against the organization. I don't blame SnF for sending a reminder this year. Whether SnF or "parties unknown" were responsible for the alleged multiple-copy delivery, we'll probably never know. Like the "unwanted poster" Richard mentioned, I bet it becomes a real collector's item.... Ron Wanttaja |
