Unfortunately, I didn't save Peter Manchester's posting, but I think the
key words he used were "in that connection" to link the American fans and
Love-hounds.  Not having been there I can't be sure, but I assumed he was
paraphrasing the Homegrinder. In any case, the same mistake was made at the
last convention and has been perpetrated in Homeground as well. Now that
PDFM has internet access and can see for himself the range of nationalities
involved -- he is British after all -- there would seem to be no excuse.
