NOTE:
Before Social Media There Was ERBzine Eclectica that we debuted in January 2000.
Our ERB Motes & Quotes Eclectica was a weekly showcase for all.
This was one of many Webpages that were featured in each week's ERBzine Webzine 
-- an online fanzine that we have published every week since 1996.
the latest ERB news, releases, readers letters, and a boundless collection of items 
of interest to Burroughs and SF/Adventure Fans. 
Images were smaller then as the Internet and computer systems were slower 
-- also server storage was much more expensive. 
Sadly, some of the off-site non-ERBzine links we've shared are no longer active 
- that, we have no control over but they are left here as a curiosity or reference.

4. Bradbury Backs Ackerman

Legendary SF author Ray Bradbury testified for his former literary agent  Forrest J. Ackerman, who is suing a former colleague, according to the Los Angeles Times. Ackerman is suing his former business associate Ray Ferry over the rights to the stage name "Dr. Acula." On May 1, Bradbury, 80, took the stand in Los Angeles on Ackerman's behalf. "How do you pronounce it, derrr-Acula, or Dr. Acula?" Bradbury testified, according to the Times. "It's been a running joke ... I would say [for] 60 years." Ackerman is known in Los Angeles for his massive "Ackermansion" house, which is filled with horror and SF movie memorabilia. Ackerman claims that he coined the pseudonym and further alleges that Ferry fraudulently induced him to sign a contract that would allow Ferry to buy millions of dollars worth of his assets for $1. Ferry, publisher of Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine, claims that he owns the rights to the "Dr. Acula" trademark, the Times reported.

9. CAUGHT IN OUR SITE

Edgar Rice Burroughs' Web Site.
http://www.edgarriceburroughs.com/
"Here we will attempt to present the life and works of the most gifted imaginative author in American history, who virtually has influenced every science fiction and fantasy author this country has produced. His influence is still felt to this day with his creations such as "Tarzan of The Apes," "John Carter of Mars," "Carson Napier of Venus," "David Innes of Pellucidar," and many other notable characters such as Billy Byrne  and David Innes. All these characters have had, to some extent, an influence on American literature.  Due to the magnitude and prolific writing of this author, this site will be undergoing a constant evolution."
