I *think* I read once that that's their policy. It's a nice move, since
overseas people have to wait longer anyway -- so if their copies are shipped
earlier, they might just get them no more than a couple of months after
Americans start crowing about the latest issue of TPJ on IRC or mailing
lists.

Cheers,
Philip

If it makes anyone feel better, I just heard from Mr. Orwant that *his*
