While many of my tribe are off to Geek Spring Break, I’m in Portland for Potlatch, a small SF convention. Behave yourselves.
Potlatch doesn’t have a guest of honor, instead the committee selects a book. This year it’s a collection of stories by the late Robert Sheckley. You can read Bad Medicine, a story of his from the 1950’s, on SciFi.com. It’s a short, funny story, about what happens when a man suffering from a psychotic delusion uses a therapy designed for a martian.
