Dear. Mr. McGrew, No one remember the reviews about good book. They really remember the bad ones.

Interesting, but mostly painful." And my favorite: "Proof that Jesus died in vain." -strandjs On Thu, Dec 31, 2009 at 9:24 AM, Robert McGrew <[email protected]>wrote: > I requested and received a review copy of this, on the off chance that > it fell into the category of "weird and eccentric, but completely > brilliant" (see Russell Walter's "Secret Guide to Computers", amazing > work, do check this out). > > It doesn't fall into this category at all. > > It's exactly as bad as you are imagining.
