Many years ago, when TNE was new, and I had just invented RICE, a gentleman named Chris/Christopher Griffen wrote several RICE Papers for worlds in Deneb Sector.

Some of these RICE Papers have come to the attention of a potential project, and the coordinator of that project (not me) is looking to discuss permission for use of the material in connection with the project.

Separately, I *AM* looking for Mr Griffen; I'd like to bring ALL of his RICE Papers into the RICE Archives at Freelance Traveller (and print them in the PDF Magazine). Unfortunately, I've only been able to find two addresses for him, one that definitely is not valid (the server has returned a permanent "Whozzat?" error) and one which is likely not valid as it dates back to 1995.

Thus, I seek the aid of the Traveller community in locating him. If you know him, or know where to reach him, would you please be so kind as to ask him to contact me, at editor@freelancetraveller.com - or, if you can find any additional leads, pass them on to me?
 
Google-fu, hiii-yah!!

Still googling and researching, but I found this:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A26T16EHVHIJ8O/ref=cm_cr_rdp_pdp It seems to at least superficially match his information here on COTI. Worth a try, perhaps?

Also, this article quotes a writer from Pleasanton, CA named Chris Griffen. It's a little more recent than everything else I've dredged up. It's a long shot, as the reporter may not even have contact information and may not be willing/able to help even if he does, but it might be worth sending a message to this reporter asking him to send word to Griffen that you're trying to contact him.

Also PM'd you another lead that while freely and easily found on the web I didn't think needed to be reposted publicly here.

Scary what a few minutes' searching can find you, sometimes..


Though all this is based on a cgriffen who was posting here a few years ago, apparently. I don't know if that's the same one or not, as I've not been around here long enough.
