Hah! I'm trying to figure out the exact date that crossed from "plausible line from a Stross or Sterling novel" [1] to "of course they did".

[1] Or maybe Sheckley or Lem, now that I think about it.

I read that as 3 books per year at first and thought to myself that that was a rather harsh limitation but surely any true respectable author wouldn't be spitting more than that...

...and then I realized you wrote 3 books a day. What the hell.
