View source for Past President of the Fan Writers of America

The Past President of the [[Fan Writers of America]] (i.e., the president for the year just past) is elected at the [[Corflu]] banquet every year. Each past president simply basks in [[egoboo]] without the need of expending effort on pointless tasks, like trying to get the [[fwa]] organized.

This was copied from the [[ECLSFS]] (Ex-Chairman of the [[Liverpool Science Fiction Society]], a 1950s [[U.K.]] [[club]]). 

Some years, two past presidents were elected, the second past president election recognizing a person for a year further in the past than the previous year, e.g. the Corflu 2 election of Suzle Tompkins for the previous year (1984) and the election of Terry Carr for a more distant year (1982).
