Speaking of "The Camel Book", I walked into Stacey's in Palo Alto, to pick up a copy of the book, about a week after it first showed up on the shelves. All the copies were gone! I asked the clerk if there were any in the store room. His rely: "Nope, they are all gone. Just like that! [snap of fingers] It was kind of scary how quickly they went." Good going Larry!
