Cynics among you might suggest the only reason I am not submitting a paper to ALife this year is because I can't think of anything to write - not at all because it is located in Winchester.
Why couldn't it be Hawaii?

"Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough!
It isn't fit for humans now," - John Betjeman

He he!

Must admit, don't know much about poetry.
However, following your prompting, I have just read "Slough", and I must say, it was worth it.
Amazing he wrote it before WWII, it still feels fresh today.

thx!

excellent!
i've just been re-reading frankenstein which I thought was relevant, but now I'm not so sure.

I think the movie Young Frankenstein is more relevant :D

I have actually submitted1 a paper to ALife XI in Winchester, England. Ironically, this will still mean me flying over and staying in a hotel as I will at that point have moved to Italy.
Happy Days.

1. Of course there is not guarantee that it will actually be accepted!
