Actually there are some possible uses, they being:

1. Announcement of small cons, ones that would not pull an international
   crowd. (for example Wilfcon III would have been in that category, do
   you know what it was, It happenned right next door at Wilfred Laurier.)

2. Looking for science fiction related clubs in Ontario, which would
   be inappropriate to post world wide.

3. Looking for specific fans (i.e. people) in Ontario.

4. Discussing stores for the finding of Science Fiction, not major
   enough for world discussion, but it is not unlikely that you
   may visit several Ontario cities, and maybe even look for science
   fiction books there, especially true for finding second hand books
   where not every store carries the same thing.

5. Flaming ccplumb. (nyah, nyah Colin)

and many more.
