Congrats Gary!
Following up on Lindsay's question, if you do decide to make a .pdf available,
within about 10 minutes you could have a book available on cafepress.com. Just
upload the .pdf and cover graphics (JPGs) and you'll rake in free money by
marking up CP's cost to you. I have a shop there for my online toons and it'a
Godsend.
I would personally rather buy a book than the CD, but if a CD is all I can get
then consider me in line. Good luck! Sounds awesome.
