The reason I said "how many published" was that Kevin seemed to believe that
this was preventing him from getting his ms. accepted.  I've looked over the
complete and incomplete mss. on my hard drive (and they weren't published) and
I think about 30 to 
40% somehow suggest science-fictional in the first sentence, though I have a
novel where the POV character is an alien that doesn't.
