Give David Langford Your Money!

So much for subtle, subliminal messages.... The buttons below are for optional PayPal or credit card donations to help with running costs of my various websites, or just because you've enjoyed reading Ansible, my SFX magazine columns, Cloud Chamber, Thog's Masterclass, or the many other articles and reviews here.

While stocks last, the first edition hardback of David Langford's first solo book War in 2080: The Future of Military Technology (1979) is available within the UK only for the cost of postage – £3.50 (allowing for PayPal fees; you can add a bit more towards the Ansible site if you like). For this item, please use the button below to avoid confusion with other site donations:

Lots of thanks to recent benefactors:

Lynn Walker, Stephen West, Antony Johnston, Rob Haley, Epsilon 3 Productions, Clive Rushen, Vivienne Dunstan, Paul J. Saarma, Jacob Nevins, Eli Cohen, Ian Watson, Garry Kilworth

– and to all buyers of Ansible Editions books and ebooks!

The Great Ansible® Trademark Initiative. On Facebook in Spring 2016 I mentioned worries about a planned rival magazine "stealing" the long established Ansible title. A surge of support from the following splendid people very quickly funded an Ansible trademark application which was approved and registered by the UK Intellectual Property Office on 8 July 2016.
