You have my sincerest apologies - that was an unfair abbreviation.
tEC2 is short for The Eosian Council (well, the second one!) which is
a UK based meet of alt.fan.eddings posters. It's taken place in Wales,
England and Scotland, but not Northern Ireland as yet, and has had up
to and over forty afe-ers at any one time, with people coming from
Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United States of America, Germany,
several of the Scandinavian countries, other European countries, (I
can't remember if anyone's come all the way from Asia/China - help
guys?) and of course from the United Kingdom itself.
The first one happened in November 1998, and I'm looking forward to
the decade anniversary of meeting some of my nearest and dearest
friends :)
Aquarius was involved in organising the second tEC and wrote to David
Eddings and got that tape as a reply.
I have been known to argue with his pronunciation of my alias :)
