Leeper > ...ihnp4!mtgzz!ecl Ever since i finished the SF Poll the associated Bibliography has been growing (now up to 310K) and i've been accumulating a fund of Nosy Questions that, hopefully, knowledgeable netters can help me with; the above quote sparked the first. It was bruited about that "Sharon Green" is really a pseudonym for "John Norman" (which is of course a pseudonym for John F. Lange, Jr.). Anyone know if this is true or not? (one of my sources told me that Tiptree was only "uncovered" after some fans lurked at her post office drop and waited to see who would come pick up the mail.) BTW, if you think it unlikely that an author would write through two layers of pseudonyms, Kenneth Bulmer as "Alan Burt Akers" is writing as "Dray Prescott". I have literally _dozens_ of such questions so i'll try to minimize net congestion by only asking a few at a time.... On another note, i'd like to take this opportunity to publically thank Andrew Sigel <sigel@umass-cs.csnet> (thanks for the lists!), Dave Tanguay <watmath!watdaisy!datanguay>, Don McKillican <utzoo!hcr!hcrvx1!don>, Bill Stoll <ulysses!ukma!wws> and John Wenn <ucbvax!gandalf.cs.cmu.edu!John.Wenn> - these apparently are the only people who found my Bibliography posting of merit and actually "put something back". Thank you very much folks. greg. --- Here is the List entry for Norman, could some kind soul supply his vital statistics and the missing publication dates?
