Dr. Brin is not a bible thumper. But not in the curses by William T. Goodall
sense of the word.

trilogy,
when Brin writes something new, he does not have a card file, computer file,
or 'bible' of previously stated facts.
Heck, the most famous twist/mistake is in Heaven's Reach where the alien has
two arms in one chapter and four arms in a later chapter.
He just received some information between the two chapters. As they say,
fore-warned is four-armed . . .
