Prometheus Winners

[ffutures]

Congratulations to Jo Walton papersky who has jointly won the Prometheus Award for Libertarian SF with Harry Turtledove; Jo gets it for Ha'Penny, Turtledove for The Gladiator, it's the first time that there's ever been a tie, and the first time a woman has won the actual award. Since the award is an ounce of gold it's well worth having - apparently they get an ounce each in the event of a tie.

Also pleased to say that Anthony Burgess has poshumously received the Hall of Fame award for A Clockwork Orange after several previous nominations.

has the news - I wanted to refer back to the actual Prometheus Award site, but my virus checker says it's trying to upload a Trojan when I go there. It's the first time I've ever seen that message, so I'd better take it seriously.

And of course this means I have to edit Jo's bio a bit in the Tooth and Claw RPG, which is a pain because there's no space left on that page...

I'm made inquiries to our president and our Webmaster. What they say is that the report of a problem is a couple of weeks old, and does not show up on the latest iteration, so they think the problem is fixed—but they're going to make further inquiries. Someone with more google fu than I have suggested that they could officially request that Google review the warning and see if it can be taken down. So you may want to check back early next week.

It's not Google, it's the virus checker software on my PC.

I've passed the information on to our Webmaster. Thanks! Not sure what happens next; I'm not sophisticated about Web stuff.
