It's far too late at night for me to check, but couldn't a single book with multiple authors win every award? A team could be put together to fulfill eligibility. And William Gibson would have to be on that team.

Malthus,
Geneva Convention is international law concerning warfare & warriors. No, it wouldn't apply to pirates. But international law concerning pirates would. I believe that's the point.

Reread your post. I guess you were referring to Rice impersonating the Aggie yell leaders. Oops. Well, the A&M yells and songs rock. Anyway.

Here is a list of official Aggie yells. There's also a link to the songs. During the "Saw Varsity's Horns Off" bit in the fight song, everyone in the stands links arms & legs & sways in unison. I swear to X that you can see the top decks of the stadium moving. I'll ask my dad (class of '68) if there was any cussing in the yells when he was there, but I doubt it.

TNH:
Ahh, but that's only one version of the lyrics. Bloom County fans might remember these versions as heard by Dukakis & GHW Bush. "Take Bent-sen and qualms begins. Iran-Contra thing makes me phlegm." Indeed.
