Re: [forteana] Fortean Times magazine - index for sale

This is for those with a collection of Fortean Times magazine issues.
Instead of getting a CD mailed to me I opted for a soft copy.  It
cost me £8.20 UK pounds or $12.16 at today's exchange rate.  Nick Vale's
PayPal account is his e-mail -- nickvale at bettertest.co.uk .

There are 435 entries for "UFO".  This only gives you issue numbers,
not the actual articles or snippets.  There are only three entries
for "radar".

I'm attaching the e-mail exchange I had with Nick Vale today.

Hi - 

Thanks for buying this index! I've been subscribing to Fortean Times 
since the late 1980's and about 18 months ago completed my collection 
by tracking down older issues from E-bay.  I then realised that the 
collection could be a useful  research tool if only I could find 
articles I vaguely remembered having seen. So I decided to index it 
(from issue 67 as I have Steve Moore's published index of the previous 
issues) and this is the result. As the name suggests it covers mostly 
the Features, Forums and Sidelines articles from February 1993 to 
April 2016, as well as letters, some reviews and Strange Deaths. 
I've also included back references to earlier issues.  I intend to 
update the index every year or so  as I spot refinements, errors or 
omissions, as well as including new issues as they appear and maybe 
also working backwards from issue 66. As a buyer of one of the first 
100 issues of the index it is possible you too will spot short-
comings - if so don't just ignore them! Email me the details of any 
improvements you find with your email address and I will send you 
an electronic copy of the next version for no charge, probably early 
in 2017. You can contact me at nickvale at bettertest.co.uk.

Hi Terry -

Thanks for your interest. It seems Ebay doesn't do global shipping to Thailand from the UK which surprised me. I've checked other means though, the best looks to be Royal Mail tracked and signed, which would add another £10 UK pounds to the price. Alternatively, if you don't want the CD, you can paypal me privately £8.20 UK pounds (use the email address above) and I'll email you a soft copy. The same free update deal applies if you spot any refinements that I can incorporate into a later version!

Let me know what suits best - Nick Vale
