Hi All,<br>
<br>
I also did not get a hold of this book and will not be attending tonight's session. Will likely be skipping out on a few more this spring as well -- just have a lot of stuff going on at the moment. That said, I think it's been about a year since I joined, so I wanted to express that I appreciate this space. It's been helping me overcome some personal struggles around speaking up when I have a different perspective or opinion from others in a group. Thanks for that and Happy New Year. : )<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

Shelly – is there anything in your copy about a copyright date? I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon had grabbed the earlier version, which ISFDB says shows no signs of having had its copyright renewed, but I wouldn't assume they did. The first book version was (c) 1956; the revision was (c) 1975. (NESFA has the latter, but I don't have the stomach to read another version.)<br>

<br>
I have read the Project Gutenberg version. The first page reads “ The Project Gutenberg eBook of Police Your Planet”. There should be information on the publisher and publication date of any version on the first few pages.<br>

ISFDB says that Police Your Planet exists in (at least) three versions: the magazine original of 1953, the "abridged" version published in book form in 1956, and the "rewritten" version that I remember coming into the MITSFS in 1975. Which version(s) have people been reading? Project Gutenberg has the 1956 version, which brings to mind a live performance of "30,000 Pounds of Bananas"; did anyone dig up either of the others?<br>
