You aren't kidding, about Paul being upset ;-) His comments in some of our
private correspondence gave me a good dose of the giggles.

He is, however, very interested in putting out a mass market edition, once
he regains the copyright- possibly before then if he can work something out
with his (deleted) publisher. He has asked for a survey  of those of us who
might be interested in buying a copy at a more reasonable price. I can ask
those on MK-Cooks, MK List, Aethelmark, Byzantine List and EK List- would
anyone be willing to forward a survey, with a description of the book, to
other SCAdian and related Lists, if I were to make one up?

Respond to me privately, folks, I don't want to clog up Cook's List
unnecessarily.
