Cactus Times Volume 4 was the newsletter of Mexicon 5, held 28-30 May 1993 in Scarborough. The nominal editor was Abigail Frost but many others took a turn -- see internal credits. Dave Carson drew the cartoon logo above, used in every issue.
Some of the more cryptic allusions are explained in Dave Langford's post-convention squib Di Ex Machinis, which also incorporates the extremely unofficial Cactus Times -- Not! issue produced later as a touching homage to Pat Cadigan.
