Why, not at all; under the pseudonym `Greg Egan' I won a Hugo only last
year, and earlier still, under the pseudonym `Robert A. Heinlein', on
several occas--

Actually, on Saturday night Greg won the Australian equivalent, the Ditmar
Award, for his novel TERANESIA. It seems quite likely that he will decline
to accept the award, since he's being doing so in respect of various Aussie
sf awards from some little time now. I assume he *did* accept the Hugo in
absentia, however (even though the award was made at a convention conducted
in Australia, and doubtless attracting the majority of Oz votes).
