I imagine they'll be reprinting it sometime soon - I think it's been one of their bigger sellers. There's a UK edition coming out soon as well.

And the reading of the Tasic is prompted by a Notices of the American Mathematical Society book review of DFW's E&M by Michael Harris (RbMH). Which I only blogwhore about because RbMH reminded me about how I so much hated reading, minutely, IJ; yet it (IJ) learned me essential things I'd really rather not share, and all from the structure of that fucking text. Well of course that and a trip down the North Bass Trail in early June with a (i did not realize this beforehand) al anone AAA hard core reformed types, who like to killed me. Point is, I can't see any worth at all in any of these obscure Sci Fi authors, they all suck, and steal fudgcicles. DFW, though, steals your mind.
