[edit] Utley's first sale

The article is progressing nicely, but there appears to be some kind of misunderstanding regarding Utley's first sale in 1975, which has been deleted twice. Is there a reason to believe that the information is incorrect? Many, if not most, bibliographies and encyclopedias include information re: first sales, e.g. see Clute et al's Encyclopedia of Science Fiction. Also, it looks like the changes are being made by the same editor, but I can't leave him or her a message since the editor is not registered and the IP is dynamic and keeps getting changed :( Ahasuerus 21:41, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Take it from me, Steven Utley in the virtual flesh -- I made my first professional sale in 1972, and about a dozen and a half more sales before Lisa Tuttle and I placed "Flies by Night" with F&SF.
