Here at the Expanse I'm caught up listing recent reference posts down at the bottom of the right sidebar. It's a short, loose index - whether or not it gets used I don't know.
I've also signed up to Matt's Kepler-22b project for sci-fi gaming. Anyone can claim a sector of the planet and give it events and locations. I have V3, an inland sea, and I'm thinking about yesterday's science for the inhabitant(s).
Three things linked with that. If you like intrigue in space, The Secret Sun has a look at Apollo and 2001, and there's another fresh approach at a newish blog, Alternate History of the Space Age, starting here. For gaming, Chris at Hill Cantons is thinking about writing a warfare system for old school roleplaying games.
Also blurring the line between gaming and literature, Hereticwerks put out a stream of posts yesterday for their growing Wermspittle setting, building on Arthur Machen's work, and at Garrisonjames there's another scene for the blogwalk, now in the list.
Finally, HoP has a reminder that 2 March is Old Stuff Day, for revisiting key posts.
For the possible Talk Tuesday, you might want to take a look at these posts, which have recent activity, or are hot topics you could find of interest if you missed them.
- Dragon's Lair... - the discussion is now on to terrain and Bluth's films
- Deeper dice (1) - ideas for rolling dice, seeing them as particles of fate
- Where no, I don't know... - discussion of Star Treks, Data and Worf
- Derelict: a naval and space combat idea - a possible open system
- How much of that IP could we own? - with more at a later post, here
Feel free to comment here or at the given post - I can do the finding or linking through.
Update: Dylan at Digital Orc has set up an online list for any old school roleplayers planning to go to GenCon. A good idea for events in general, and one to keep in mind.

Hi Porky. Old Stuff Day, sounds fun. Hope things are good your way. Thanks for all the links.
Boogie, boogie, boogie.
Thanks for helping to pimp Old Stuff Day.
Thanks for the mention. We might be looking for a few good play-testers soon...
No worries on the links. They interest me plenty so I'm betting they will others, especially you intrepid regular readers.
@ The Happy Whisk - Good here, with plenty of wholesome food getting cooked up for the cold snaps. That said, it's getting slowly to the point some proper fresh produce would be very welcome.
@ Thor - Thanks for taking it on. It's a cool idea, but we might have let the date pass us by if you hadn't picked it up. I hope Warhammer 39,999 is just hibernating. Maybe they'll be back as the day gets closer, or be inspired again by us going ahead with it.
@ garrisonjames - That magic word. Playtester. And for Wermspittle. I'll be up for that without a doubt, and we'll be queueing up. Anyone reading this who doesn't want to miss something big should go click that link and have a read. My prediction is Wermspittle going a long way.
