I got my copy-edited manuscript back from Simon & Schuster today. The copy-editor did an absolutely jaw-droppingly thorough job. My hat's off to him, even though he made a few errors (i.e., assuming Carl Sagan co-wrote "The Demon-Haunted World" with Ann Druyan). But that's an understandable mistake. When this thing is finally published, it will be about as accurate as humanly possible. And from browsing through it this evening, I think it holds up pretty well.

Also, a reviewer in Britain has expressed interest. The wheels are in motion.

(I wonder if cosmology writer/Posthuman Blues reader Marcus Chown would be interested in taking a look? Probably not his bag, but he did address ET artifacts in "The Universe Next Door" . . .)
