“I first met Jim Hogan back in the mid-nineties at the Doctors for Disaster Preparedness convention, an annual get-together for skeptics of environmentalist doom. That probably sounds strange, but the disasters they talked about were of the government-caused variety. My husband Kent and I, pleasantly surprised to find one of our favorite science-fiction writers in attendance, were stunned to find ourselves hanging out with Jim for nearly the entire weekend.” (07/19/10)
