TYPO/CORRECTIONS:
1:01 "timless" is supposed to read "Timeless", Tim's are absolutely invited to be furries.
1:55 The Cartoon/Fantasy Organization helped connect subscribers and Amateur Press Associations for distributing these fanzines http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Cartoon/Fantasy_Organization
2:28 Omaha the cat dancer didn't cause the raids. It was one of many titles picked up in the raids.
7:40 The "Burned Furs" were not the first puritanical movement to attempt to "clean up" the fandom.
8:56 The fursuit parade was also intended to show the Dealers Den sellers the costumed guests, since they couldn't leave their tables.
10:29 Lots of Furry comics were published in the 80's and 90's, but shifted online with fandom preferences. Today we see a resurgence of fandom print publishing.
Thanks to our fact-checkers Summerotter, Chip Fox for these addendums
