Random quote: "Swords, Lances, arrows, machine guns, and even high explosives have had far less power over the fates of nations than the typhus louse, the plague flea, and the yellow-fever mosquito. Civilizations have retreated from the plasmodium of malaria, and armies have crumbled into rabbles under the onslaught of cholera spirilla, or of dysentery and typhoid bacilli. Huge areas have been devastated by the trypanosome that travels on the wings of the tsetse fly, and generations have been harassed by the syphilis of a courtier. War and conquest and that herd existence which is an accompaniment of what we call civilization have merely set the stage for these more powerful agents of human tragedy." ― Hans Zinsser, Rats, Lice and History

Location: UK		Just heard that this excellent SF/F resource is closing down after 13 years. The owners say that it is now so big it takes an inordinate amount of their time to service it. It was a fun yet informative site. Fingers crossed someone can take it over

Location: The Netherlands		Very sad indeed, it is one of the SF sites I follow religiously. Then again, given the huge amount of time and effort it takes to keep that site running without much in the way of compensation it is to be expected that sites like that only last for so long. Thirteen years is an eternity on the web, they had a very good run. The blogsphere is large an vibrant. Surely someone will rise to the occasion and fill the void.
