You just have to buy it - I didn't ask you to read it.

I really don't like her fact checking. Doesn't she know that Atlantis is in the Pegasus galaxy?!?

She is a fan of SG-1; I don't think she's seen any episodes of SG-A.

Yeah, they must have sold out of the 6 initial copies they requested. So, are you unable to order at all or do they take the order and ship when it's in stock?
EDIT: Go ahead and order - you just won't get your copy the next day.

OK, for those that don't like amazon.com, here is an ebay listing for those that want to bypass the distributor - thanks again!

This way you can get a signed copy... you know, for when the movie comes out and stuff.

Thanks to everyone who bought a copy - she is/was running around 1800th in sales on amazon.com today, which is great considering they have 28,000,000+ titles. Fingers crossed for a movie deal.

I hate potatoes so probably not.
And Volga sounds like an awesome foreign swear word.
