Pick an issue at random

Cloud Chamber is another bloody Langford fanzine -- an occasional slim outbreak formerly contributed to a variety of APAs (amateur press associations). For many years, since issue 40 in 1993, it appeared in Maureen Kincaid Speller's Acnestis -- known to some as Acne -- but this died in 2005. Now CC tends to be an occasional round-up of letters and miscellanea that didn't fit into Ansible. Very occasionally I've deleted private or excessively obscure comments addressed to other APA members, but total comprehensibility of APA-circulated issues is not guaranteed.

These two issues were for a short-lived political APA (suggested name Reds In Space) whose principal aim was to be, er, political. Also, not Tory.

Pre-1985 issues of Cloud Chamber were produced without benefit of word processors. Special credit to Mark Plummer for scanning #3. Since acquiring a better OCR kit I'm adding further eolithic issues from time to time, but please don't hold your breath waiting for the full run. Much of it seems desperately trivial stuff now....
