Our first week of Retro-Hugo discussions was hampered by every person who attended hoping that someone else had done research and had recommendations. We therefore postponed discussion until next week, but we'll have to do the entire ballot then in order to say on schedule.
The FANAC Fan History Project has some good material about what was published in 1953 on their web site at http://www.fanac.org/fanzines/Retro_Hugos.html and I recommend that people have a look there this week in preparation for next Monday's meeting. Once again, remember to buy your membership to Noreascon 4 <http://www.noreascon.org/> by this Saturday if you aren't already a member (or were not a member of Torcon 3) in order to be eligible to nominate for this year's Hugo Awards and the 1954 Retrospective Hugo Awards.
