I received my collector's edition yesterday, and I'm telling you, with 
all this hype, it had better be worth something in 40 years' time. ;)  I 
got it just in time, too.  I'm going to Canada for a conference tomorrow, 
and it'll be perfect reading material during the long flight across the 
Atlantic. 

I've read the first two chapters already, and I have to say it's a 
thoroughly enjoyable read.  The examples are good, the colloquial style 
makes the material more interesting (as if it wasn't interesting to begin 
with!), and the rapid-fire puns are delivered in style. ;)  Well done!
