Why don't you guys just ask Brin about all these niggling lil'
details? This is his list, and it's not like he's dead.
Because He usually replies: "I don't know, you are the experts
in those presky details" or something like that :-P
Several of my favorite authors are that way. Orson Scott Card is
notorious for using his fans to remember and correct details. Terry
Pratchett is notorious for not remembering previous details and
contradicting. I loved his approach to it, because he spent an entire
novel (Thief of Time) explaining that the contradictions are just a part
of the "reality".
