Dead or Alive?

How many of your authors are dead?

Dead: 49 / Alive: 116 / Unknown: 153 / Not a Person: 1

Percent alive: 70.3%

The above is a report generated from a neat new analytical script that LibraryThing can do to your home bookshelves, called “Dead or Alive?”

I sort of assumed I’d have more dead authors.  Ah well.  Ironically, they listed my own name as “Unknown”…and I found that a little soothing.  Call me anthropomorphic, but I think I’d rather be among those undead than “Not a Person”.

[Scrolled to the bottom … They DO have a catagory for “Zombies” too!  LibraryThing is a riot.]

Happy Valendine’s Day.
