That's ridiculous!<br>
<br>
You know, we really ought to just sit on Mike Bishop until he agrees to revise and republish Robinson. The book is badly in need of revision, and the market's just desperate for a new edition. Anything to get more copies on the market, and they may as well be full of up-to-date info.<br>
<br>
Next time you see Dr. Bishop, sit on him! E EM (But explain why, of course)<br>

saw a copy doing the rounds [for a couple of years now]- it was £130....last I saw it was £80 [I think]<br>
<br>
getting it republished was discussed elsewhere few months ago- the answer was, not very likely <br>
