Check the general HaMeX site for updates and details

CONVENTIONS - Unfortunately From Imagination To Reality had to be postponed for the time being, due to operational problems. However it is hoped to re-mount the convention at a later date.

The description page will, however, stay for the moment. Click on the above image.

The Technical Stuff

This website was created in April 1997. Up until recently it has remained very much in the way it was created way back then, and reached, in perhaps not too logical numbering, Version 13.0.1.

Now we have Version 14, using (slightly) more modern web-building techniques, though in the main I have still tried to keep it simple, so that it will download reasonably fast and not clog up increasingly overburdened broadband systems and, heavens, some may still be on dial-up!

The MENU - to the left - opens pages in new windows, as do links on this main contents page, so either use the back-button on your browser, or click the 'HOME' link image at the bottom of each page, to return here.

Note also that where there is a background image - as here - the text will - should - scroll up over it, making the reading of the text easier. If it doesn't scroll, you are using a very old browser!

[However it has been realised that if you view this on a small screen - say a notebook or iPad - you'll probably only get 'sky', and the skies of Arizona, as here, are clear and solid blue, so it appears there is no background image!]
