Issue #8 of The Banksoniain is available from
www.banksoniain.netfirms.com

Canal Dreams gets the 'book biography' treatment from a writer new to
the Banksoniain..
We have the regular round up of Banks related news in the Media Scanner
column, but also a special round up of Worldcon news and a special
personal view from guest writer.
Not "THE" Iain Banks returns, as does eBayWatch, with Banks in
Translation looking at the Baltic States as a whole. The "Culture"
books as a Mastermind subject is also covered in depth.

I just noticed (via Google) that http://banksoniain.netfirms.com/ is a much
more recent URL. The one providde above seems to be over a year old.
Cheers,
Michael (currently reading "The Bridge")

Perhaps it's a problem I've noticed elsewhere. Your browser is going
for a cached copy and you should hit refresh when you get there.

No, when I go for http://www.banksonian.netfirms.com/, I find a page from
2004. Refreshing just increased the visitor counter from 100 to 101.
Actually, the links are quite similar. The old one includes www, while
the new one includes all "i"s in Iain's name. Let me check that...
[1 minute later:]
Just did another test, and realized what was wrong: As I couldn't click
the link directly from my newsreader, I typed it manually, and forgot one
"i"!
Problem solved, the provided link from OP was correct. Sorry for the
confusion!
Cheers,
Michael
