Olbermann hits the nail on the head yet again - Crichton's a hack, and he deserves only the most dubious of awards.

Dollars to donuts that the next Crichton novel has a scurrilous character named Kean Olberson or somesuch, with undescended testicles.

You think he'd bother to change the name that much. It'll probably be "Heath Olbermann" the sports anchor turned political commentator who also rapes kittens with baseball bats because his penis is too small for the job.

I don't think Crichton is a hack, but this petty action has betrayed his readers.
