	Hmmmmm....  You just reminded me of an idea i've had kicking in my
head for some time.  At one point, I almost wrote to FTL asking them to
publish a full sized book on DM.  This would be complete with source and
flowcharts.  The advantage to this?  I am -positive- that half of all hackers
for the ST would be willing to shell out $30 for this book.  Lets hear it.
Anybody else for a letter writting campaign to FTL?
