And 12 years from start to 'proper' publication: 1994-2005

Technically, it would be something like 'The groundcar was being driven by Hal to the airport', or something along those lines, where it should be 'Hal was driving the groundcar to the airport.' The example of a passive sentence I gave in the history of Hal article wasn't accurate, and will now be edited...

I paid a professional binding shop to do them. Bear in mind I live in Western Australia, where it can be hard to find services like this. If I lived in the US I'd have used Lulu or some other POD service, as long as the finished price was low enough.
