Yes, my yellow and white penny dropped this weekend
when I stumbled upon:
  http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/038752018X/ref%3Dnosim/ricksphotograpag/002-9472883-3462401
I had the look inside and I like the style, so I think I'll go for it.
Can you (or anyone) recommend the paperback edition?
I mean, is it sufficiently rigid?

Thanks again,
Dirk Vdm
