If the readers survey that I did on OtherRealms is any indication, the
reason that there isn't as much fantasy discussed on the net is because
fewer people on the net read fantasy. The figures I got on my survey
show that 97% of the OtherRealm readers read SF, and only 82% read
fantasy. Also, the number of books per month is way down, too -- 4 SF
books against only three fantasy.
