I ordered [Schneier's] book, when it first came out, from the local Borders book store. When I went to pick it up, they told me that if I decided to buy it I could not return it, since it was not a book that they would otherwise not stock it Today I was there checking out the computer books, and they had a copy on the shelf, so I guess it was in enough demand that they decided to stock it.
I found a few copies in a local bookshop the other day. When it first came out, I thought I'd have to order it, and was pleasantly surprised to find it already in stock. But then I buy books on discount from an academic distributor, so that was probably to be expected. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rishab Aiyer Ghosh "Clean the air! clean the sky! wash the wind! rishab@dxm.ernet.in take stone from stone and wash them..."
