The contest will be concluded when all of this coronavirus business is over, the quarantine is lifted, and we gather together once again at a club meeting, date yet to be determined. Here are the details:<\/h6>\n<h6>Test your knowledge of the inconsequential, obscure, inane minutiae of the sci-fi universe! Win points and prizes! Just print out this two-sided quiz sheet and write in your answers to these 19 questions. Bring your completed quiz with you to the next MonSFFA meeting (date to be determined; check the club\u2019s Web site regularly), at which time we\u2019ll have ready for you a final 20th question to wrap up the contest. We\u2019ll tally all the points and award prizes to our three top-scoring entrants! Non-club members are welcome to participate, too!<\/h6>\n<h6>Note that out-of-town club members who, of course, will not likely be able to attend that post-quarantine MonSFFA meeting and answer our wrap-up question, are asked to return to us by e-mail (<a href=\"mailto:veep@monsffa.ca\">veep@monsffa.ca<\/a>) or standard postal mail (MonSFFA c\/o 4456 Boul.
