Any chance anyone has a copy of Christopher Priest's book that they can
post here? All versions have been pulled from the web. I'd happily buy
a copy, but it's out of print and used copies are going for a small
fortune.

Thanks!

Haha fuck yourself you fanboi idiot, some kind soul has gone ahead and
posted it anyhow. I was just going to point out that any of the
e-book NGs would respond quickly to a request for this work.

Listen, just because that old cunt Ellison has a hair up his ass about
the internet (which he doesn't understand), his rapid aging and
degeneration, and the unfortunate fact that he is going, nay, has
GONE, out of style, will not prevent any of his works that anyone is
interested in being posted in portable document format or otherwise on
usenet. Let him try to sue an NSP, perhaps he can use his big
thesauraused words which may have hit the spot when Dangerous Visions
was released but don't cut the mustard anymore.

Why don't you amble off to his fucking inbred little cluster of fanboi
infested website and complain in polysyllabic fashion to the old
prick. Tell him its about time he investigated Buddhism and the
theory of non-attachment, because his grumpy bullshit style, on an old
man, is tired and tiresome.

I once thought he was the bees' knees. But he has, like so many
people, failed to move on, he lives only in the past. Its not too
late though.

best regards, you motherfucker

You couldn't help yourself, could you? You had to demonstrate what an
amoral fuckwit you are.

Turn off your computer, crawl out of your mom's cellar, the sun is
shining. Go out and play.

Ha!

Ha!
You know its true. More to the point, *I* know its true. Not
everyone loves him sport.

How does amoral come into it? Because I don't happen to like people
who have outgrown their niche but don't move on? 30 years ago,
Ellison would have linguistically sneered at the old vacuum he has
become.

He needs to wake up. Point him in my direction, here, I'll be
waiting. I'll assist him.

Now, fuck off...
