(Does anybody know?) What we have so far certainly deserves mention in "Additions, Errata, &cetera: volume 3," as well as all the other tidbits slated and a huge amount about Kardashev Type I, Type II, and Type III (levels of interstellar civilization); the 20th century science (and subsequent science fiction) regarding a possibly already dying sun; the text points of TBOTNS suggesting a black hole in the Sun (this lack in the LEXICON is shocking); terraforming timelines, stellaforming, and other relevant notes from Fogg's TERRAFORMING, and so on. Will there be room for the article on "ProtoS" (the proto-Severian)? Probably not, but we shall see. =mantis= ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jim Jordan — 09 Feb 1998, 13:34 follows, by subject match m.driussi Green Book.

I've thought the same thing. It would be a great help for we BotNS scholars. Too bad it would grossly violate copyright law . Christopher R.
