As usual you designed a great model.
I was a huge fan of the Tom Swift Jr books and they were probably one
of the big influences to go into science (I started out as a Marine
PetroGeologist, so Tom's u8ndersea adventures likely assisted me in my
choice of specialization) Though I worked in science only a short time I
ended up in the movies and, several times, attempted to mount a Tom
Swift film (seems I lacked Tom's great followthrough, through). Over the
years I have met many authors, scientists and astronauts and almost all
of them were Tom fans. I am amazed it took this long for a con like that
to arrive. If I had not been GOH at another con I definitely would have
attended. Is there a chance of another TomCon next year? Maybe the con
paper model will be Tom Jr's wonderful "Sky Queen" (which, by some
mysterious coincidence, was the name of my Wife and I's plane.[I never
did get my SeaCopter, though])
