Abandon in Place by Jerry Oltion

A clean miss. In fact, although I am aware of him, I am not sure I've
ever read anything by Oltion.
 

I think I have read the Levinsno and the Sparhawk (both were in Analog),
the other 3 were in magazines which I have, but I don't recognize the
titles.

Just the Yolen, the Kelly, the Swanwick, and the Fowler, which I think
are also the stories that were in Starlight 1.

None? (though the description of the Kelly story in the ISFDB looks
familiar).
