As someone who *was* Jason's student, I'd suggest that if that book is clearly derived from Jason's book but Jason's name isn't on the cover you should definitely be asking questions about that. I would say more but I don't want to put words in Jason's mouth. Cheers, -n8 --=20 Nathan Gray http://www.n8gray.org/
