To all you pedants out there (and you know who you are
), the Oxford English Dictionary's sci-fi site needs your help.
It is trying to date the earliest use of phrases in science fiction, and some entries are wrong. Eg: the earliest use of 'jump engine' comes from a non-Traveller rpg manual, 1981. I'm sure CT beats that.
There's other stuff in there that I'm sure many of you here can correct or enter.
