We have a new WordsDay graphic because somebody *cough* Mackowski *cough* insisted that we needed one. So here it is.

That’s not bad, Ilgattapardo. You got nine right.
Bah. I tried cheating by using Ilgattapardo’s list, but all I can add is #4 is really William Gibson. #10 is Neal Stephenson.
So this is a group exercise now, is it?
Hey. I’m practically illiterate. I’m lucky to know half of those. heh. At least I didn’t post which ones on that other list I thought were right. I figured out 8 others.
