June, 1995
Whoops! The Game Cabinet was one year old this month and I just let the
anniversary slip by without any special celebration! What was I thinking?
However, I believe this was the largest collection of new pointers
that the Game Cabinet had ever seen - somewhere near twenty new articles
and links - combined with the spillover from late May after the Gathering
the total rose to near forty! Which, I suppose, is only impressive because
this is a hobby and all of the material is created by volunteers! Thanks
to all the folks out on the Net! I also suspect you can always look
for large issues after Nuremberg/Gathering in May/June and Essen in
October/November.
