During the recent flame war, I was reminded that I have a hardcover book,
"Basics of Analog Computers" by T. D. Truit and A.E. Rogers, 1960, Rider
Publishers, in exeptional condition with dust cover. Although it would go
for hundreds of dollars on eBay (I wish!) I thought I would offer it here in
hopes of ingratiating myself to some fellow list member for a favor as yet
to be determined. (BTW, there is a punched card in it used as a bookmark
that would fetch $10-$20 alone on eBay <g>).

So, here's the deal - I will send the book for shipping costs to the best
37-words-or-less reason for why you want / deserve / would-kill-for this
classic, antique, vintage, pre-Altair, pre-S-100, pre-Intel, pre-historic
tome on analog computers, beautifully illustrated (seriously) with
pen-and-ink drawings on about every other page. Submit your entries to the
list by midnight November 10, 2000. Decision of the judge is final. All
entries become the property of everyone else. Contestants must be 18 months
or older. Offer not valid in Minot, N.D. or to relatives or employees
therein. Allow 8 weeks for delivery. Notary sojac.
