I was thinking that just last night, that in Melbourne the list of people who have genuinely done a lot to benefit fandom is getting shorter.

Two of Continuum's fan guests were people who did tonnes for fandom, but were never going to be recognised for it if we didn't do it. One because he'd always just been there and was taken for granted, and the other because people had issues with him and so ignored all the great work he had done.

There other folks who in this decade have been more visible, but most of them haven't had the fans interests as their top priority.
