Hi Sol
Yeah, sending any errors straight to the list is fine. I can't believe that
particular one got missed, though. That's SOO annoying! Ah well, it's now
fixed in the source file. I'll resist uploading a new version just for that
one fix ;-)

Ah, I hadn't foreseen that. In all honesty, the pages being in the order they
are has helped considerably during the editing process (heh heh). But it could
indeed cause a slight problem with printing double-sided.

Our mailing list doesn't support attachments, I'm afraid.
I don't have a copy of the UK cover of the book myself, since my version is an
imported US edition. This is important because Brian Williams produced the
cover for the UK edition, and he has given his consent for his work to be
used. The American artist (Richard Corben?) hasn't been contacted. Besides,
the UK cover is the original one.
If you have a UK edition and could scan the cover, then please do so. The dpi
only needs to be 200. You can mail it to me direct at outspaced @ ntlworld.com
(remove the spaces; damn E-mail harvester bots). Of course, the cover
illustration will appear on page 2 of the document (since the Project Aon
legal and ID stuff comes first), but that's not too much of a problem. :-)
Thanks for the impromptu editing, and thanks for the cover idea/scan.
Keep the faith.
