Random quote: "Swords, Lances, arrows, machine guns, and even high explosives have had far less power over the fates of nations than the typhus louse, the plague flea, and the yellow-fever mosquito. Civilizations have retreated from the plasmodium of malaria, and armies have crumbled into rabbles under the onslaught of cholera spirilla, or of dysentery and typhoid bacilli. Huge areas have been devastated by the trypanosome that travels on the wings of the tsetse fly, and generations have been harassed by the syphilis of a courtier. War and conquest and that herd existence which is an accompaniment of what we call civilization have merely set the stage for these more powerful agents of human tragedy." ― Hans Zinsser, Rats, Lice and History

I think it is great that new awards are being added. Do you think the Compton Crook award could be added? It's for the best first novel by a writer in the Fantasy, Science Fiction or Horror genres.

This can definitely be added to the site. Here is the complete lists of noms and winners at Locus:

It's a strange award where the noms appear and disappear randomly throughout it's run. Many years only have a winner. Not sure what that's about but it could be that the noms list just weren't released or perhaps were lost to time?
