Interesting, though I'm hoping to avoid shelling out the $50.

Somebody buy this and tell me if it's any good?

Thanks!

It doesn't look like a bathroom book, but I bet it's pretty fascinating stuff, considering the author.

I'll probably pick it up. Doc, I'll post and let you know how much you are missing by not reading it. \:\/

I went ahead and preordered. Here's hoping I finally get around to learning something about audio so I can stop making JohnK shake his head. On the other hand, I'd hate to take away any bobble-related superpowers.

Look at it this way, you could learn just enough to confuse the heck out of everybody and keep John and crew busy straitening people out. ;\)

I speak from experience. ;\)

I will probably pre-order some time this week. After reading the link JohnK posted earlier this week, I am beginning to appreciate just how mis-quoted Dr. Toole is at times.
