I wonder where this puts the award totals.

http://explorers.whyte.com/nh2.html  lists Willis' new totals
as 8 Hugo awards and 6 Nebula awards.  This puts her ahead of everybody
for Hugo awards (for the SF author categories; there are probably editor and
fan and art winners with more) and Nebula awards.

The Hugo runners-up are Poul Anderson and Harlan Ellison with 7 each;
Fritz Lieber and Roger Zelazny with 6.
 
The Nebula runners-up are Ursula LeGuin and Robert Silverberg with 5 each;
Joe Haldeman and Greg Bear and Samuel R. Delany with 4.
 
(Does this look right, David?)

I think the nebula and hugo people should just add a new category:  Best Story
by Connie Willis.
