Boy, fans sure have changed! ;-) In this pic http://fanac.org/worldcon/Clevention/w55-043.html it's interesting to see all the closeups of Jupiter and Saturn...and realize that they are almost certainly paintings...while today they could be photographs. Some things have changed other than fashions. Just not as much as they were hoping back then I expect...or fearing. I'm also not noticing anyone who is very overweight...was that typical of the population at the time? (I ask because I wasn't born until the following year... ;-). If so, I wonder what's changed since then? Sugary foods? Snacking rather than three squares a day? Also, where are the kids? Everyone appears to be 20-something or older. -- Mike B. -- Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?
