Just received a copy myself. (For us in europe it seems to be easier
to get hands on this book, than on a copy of the standard document :-().
I'd recommend, that *everyone* would read the sections in this
book before posting questions in this newsgroup! This book is very
affordable (about $10), clarifies syntax using railroad track diagrams
rather than formal notation, contains more diagrams, tables and
examples where necessary and seems very authorative.
