Paper's cheap, time isn't.  You're right that the printed/bound book
would be much nicer (I'm assuming it doesn't have "Figure not available"
sprinkled liberally throughout).  Ah, well...time to schlep the files
over to my buddy's place (he has a color laser that does duplex) and
take a few dollars' value off the "things you owe me for" ledger.

Neat language so far.  I look forward to kicking its tires.
