#37; Just because they show the whole thing in the photos and have it on the set, that doesn't mean it'll all be in frame or otherwise unobscured on camera.

But that certainly is something to consider when translating it to the screen.

I was thinking of the Moxy Früvous thing -- I even thought that no one thinks Mario Puzo is Canadian.

I live in Canada, and for some reason, all my friends think Lessing is a Canadian writer. I even notice on Boing Boing (http://boingboing.hexten.net/2007/10/11/doris-lessing-wins-n.html), Cory Doctorow refers to her as Canadian. (I thought she was, too.)

But any bio info about her I can find doesn't mention Canada. It's very weird.

Here in Canada (or at least BC) it's not on your driver's license. The BC Transplant Society is here, the Quebec one is here, and the Ontario Ministry of Health's page about it is here. Hope that's not too many links.

My daughter got a new kidney almost 5 years ago now (when she was four and a half), and the difference it made was just enormous (not to mentioning getting her off the 12 hours a night dialysis). Anyone who signs up, you have my thanks, and you will have an almost unimagineable level of gratitude from any recipient and their loved ones.

(I didn't know John M. Ford personally other than as a poster on the Pyramid forums, but even just his signatures there were worth more than the cost of subscription...)

Spin probably is his best, but anyone who hasn't read any of Wilson's other books has lots of treats coming. I only started with (I think) Darwinia, but The Chronoliths was the one that really clicked. He really does well developed realistic human characters, almost like something you'd see in lit-fic (except not quite so dreary, usually).
