Tim McDaniel has already answered this one, so I won't.  However, I would
observe that Global Engineering Documents, (800)854-7179 or (714)261-1455,
buys in bulk from ANSI and sells to the public... and they are easier to
deal with.  (For example, they take phone orders and accept credit cards,
and last I checked, ANSI does neither.)

At last report, the ANSI C standard had not yet been published and hence
is not yet available.  Global (but not ANSI) will sell you the Dec 1988
draft, which is identical to the standard except for some wording changes.
Publication of the real standard is imminent.
