I will confirm what the fellow from NASA/Ames said, that the majority
of the mail regarding the John Norman/GOR series is from women.  Further,
I have also heard that the mail runs on average 2 to 3 to 1 favorable
to the series.  Both of these facts were gleaned from a running dialog
that happened on net.sf-lovers about 18 months ago about GOR.  There is
another, non-GOR book by Norman that follows the same general vein, called
'Time Slave' dealing with prehistoric Earth, (and what happens when 20th
century people get transported there thru the magic of technology).  I
can't remember the name of the other non-GOR book I have read by Norman,
its set in the 1850s or so among the American Indian tribes.  Then, of
course, there is 'Imaginative Sex', which is non-fiction, although I
haven't been able to locate a copy around here (Balto-Wash).
