Congrats! Since when is The Prince by Machiavelli considered SF?
Congratulations on your 3rd place finish in the CBC’s recent poll of the Top 10 Science Fiction Writers! Here’s the link:

Interesting question about The Prince there. Brave New World and Handmaid's Tale make sense to include as much as Rob's work does, but Machiavelli seems better suited to political science.
Pleased to see those particular three Bat-books in the running as well, though.
Congrats, Rob!
No doubt somewhere along the line, THE PRINCE got miscategorized. :)
Paul, yes, I was thrilled to place so highly on the CBC's poll! I'll gladly take a backseat to Herbert and Asimov any day.
1. Frank Herbert
2. Isaac Asimov
3. Robert J. Sawyer
4. Arthur C. Clarke
5. William Gibson
6. Philip K. Dick
7. Ursula K. Le Guin
8. Robert A. Heinlein
9. Neal Stephenson
10. Roger Zelazny
By the way, given that I'm feeling old as I race toward my 50th birthday on the FLASHFORWARD target date of April 29, 2010, I'm pleased to see I'm the YOUNGEST writer on the list (Neal is six months older than me).
