SWIL

    SWIL: mutated reality is a body of anthropomorphic globules dedicated
to the proposition that all fiction is not created equal: science fiction
and fantasy are better.
    Each week we unite to reaffirm our existence. Meetings are called to
disorder Sundays at brunch. We discuss questions concerning Truth, God,
Death, and fourty-two. Like other cults, we also engage in ritual
activities such as reading and filksinging, attending science fiction
conventions and presenting movies. We will also be sponsoring a sf
writers' workshop this fall.
    Occasionally from beyond the blue event horizon of our collective
soul, there emerges _The_Unicorn_Star_, our timeless, semi-annual
publication.
    Requirements for voting non-membership are sentience and attendance
at three consecutive meetings. Membership is somewhat easier to attain
(sentience is not obligatory).
    Interested humans should contact Jim Huang (Fearless and Charismatic
Leader, President and Elightened Despot) or Alice Macneal (Keeper of the
Keys to the Dungeons).
    Let there be SWIL.
