Notes
  1. The SFWA Grand Masters, Volume 2 title listing at the Internet Speculative Fiction Database
gollark: Text is just lists of characters, it's fine.
gollark: Besides, my open-source things still break mysteriously sometimes.
gollark: That cannot possibly erase the sheer horror of printers, however.
gollark: Printers can smell fear, and will randomly break/misprint at the worst possible times.
gollark: The fact that printers are actually involved in fairly secret government conspiracies to track/limit documents is yet another reason printers should be treated with extreme suspicion.
