I know this is a deviation from the topics mentioned
so far.

Where can I get hold of a copy of the book, or do I
have to wait?

Also at stevenage he slyly plugged a dvd release of

anymore info on this?

NB. We were regularly told as students that you can
legally photocopy 5% of
a book

(Don't recall who asked, but... "N.B." is the standard
abbreviation for the
Latin expression "nota bene" meaning "note well" and
is "used to direct
attention to something particularly important".)
