My thoughts exactly. Still, it was nice to have it in hard copy.

He does spell his name Hillegass :-)

This book I'm _very_ interested in. I'm somewhat of a collector of O'Reilly books 
(thirty-two at last count) so it's a shoo in anyway but the subject matter really 
excites me. This is the first I've heard of it...

Please post more info if you get any.
