Hi!!

+1 to what Lee and Grahams said...
The pdf unfortunately won't be released before several months, I think to let some times for the fascicule to be sold sufficently.

Jeremy Wright had warned me about any illegal pdf copy that would be made will be seen as a violation of the copyright and further legal action will be taken against the persons who spread it illegaly...

cheers

Sorry for the confusion with "pdf"...I just used to getting these type publications in that format. I certainly did not mean to suggest the theft of intelectual property.

That's great, but I've sent three emails now to the address in this topic and no reply. Nothing (and I've checked my junk mail). I have had the opportunity of receiving several versions of the illegal PDF from others with the same frustrating experience as me.

If this is the norm, it might be a long time before "sufficient" sales are made. This is just my view, and it might be a contentious one, but I see it as another bad example of a sadly lost opportunity for aquarists to support science with hard cash.

Sorry, this is a raw nerve of mine...

Just wanted to say that I got a reply soon after I posted which is great. Not so great is that I cannot send payment electronically and spending $40 to get an international money order organized dampens even my enthusiasm!

Anyone I know personally want to go in with a bulk (say ten copies) order with me and I'll paypal you half the cash and you send the check? You and I could then put the rest of the copies on watermart for the greater good?
