Well, I'm afraid I haven't noticed any with quite the subtlety that Scott
has, but there are the names of about half the planets in the Solomani
Rim. Most aren't too obscure and the sources will be readily apparent,
but many will not be obvious to the casual reader of SF, especially if he
isn't up on his Golden Age writers. (Most modern readers aren't exposed
to E.E. Doc Smith, so Boskone and Arisia will simply be a couple more
Traveller planet names...)
I'm not sure this is quite what Scott had in mind, tho'...
