This doesn't work.  I just called that number, and was told they
only do phone ordering for books costing $25 or more (and they
confirmed the price of $19.95).  Instead, they told me to mail my
order to

	IEEE Computer Society
	P.O. Box 80452
	Worldway Postal Center
	Los Angeles, Ca. 90080

including a check for $19.95 + $4 for shipping and handling, plus
$2 if I wanted it shipped UPS instead of whatever snail mail they
would normally use (I don't remember what she said it was, probably
4th class).  I will now try that.

Too bad they don't charge $5.05 more for it.
