So who is the Australian SF author? And in how many quantum universes was it Greg Egan...

[drplokta]

I'd be pretty sure that it was Greg Egan in a set of universes of measure zero.

I'm pretty sure about that too. Hell, I wouldn't recognise Greg Egan in a brewery..

Who can understand the ways of editors?

Hey, thats unfair, you didn't point out I was number one...

No really. No, Honest...

Oh, OK, they had to take me off the list after news of the forthcoming nuptials leaked, but its true, I was up there...

That was scary. Picking up on my alma mater's love of the number 47 (http://www.pomona.edu/Welcome/Trek/47trek.shtml), and all.

{do you think we should tell lilian what base they're using?}

Only 47th? Shurely shome mishtake?

[green-amber.livejournal.com]
