This article is from the alt.fan.harrison-ford FAQ, by Angela Boyko neptunia@geocities.com with numerous contributions by others.
The chance to talk with many of his fans from across the globe. We use
the newsgroup to keep each other informed of his upcoming TV appearances,
to help each other find copies of magazines containing terrific articles
and pictures of Harrison Ford. We talk about his movies, and the man
himself, and share our favourite scenes and opinions of all of his movies.
Note: not everyone likes all of his movies, although everyone certainly
likes most of them. There are plenty of threads debating the merits of
each film, and lots of polite and respectful disagreement. This really is
the friendliest newsgroup on the Net, and we all strive to get along,
even when someone hates our favourite movies.
Blatant flaming of Harrison Ford, his movies, and/or people in the
newsgroup is not tolerated, however. We do get the occasional troll
(someone who posts nasty and/or false stuff to provoke angry responses).
The best thing to do is ignore them, so they will go away.
A 1998 survey showed that 90.2% of the participants are female, the
average age is 32, and the ages range from 14 to 73 years old. So anyone
is welcome! :-)
* Thanks goes to Claire for compiling the results.
From time to time, we have posted bios about ourselves as a way to get to
know each other better. Claire has kindly compiled many of them on her
web page, which you can find at
http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Academy/9355/meetus.html.
Participation is voluntary, and you must let Claire know if she can add
your bio to the web page - it will not be added without your permission.
