Thanks for reminding me, I have to call him.

Yesterday morning I was scanning stuff for the purpose of restoring our
online catalog to the cheesy glory of our old school print catalog,
from whence it drifted. I thought "Wait a minute, I don't wanna
duplicate effort, didn't we already scan some of this stuff for
REVELATION X?"

And then I remembered the REVELATION X CD-Rs.

In '94 or whenever we finished that book, Palmer gave me 2 CDs which he
said were very precious and that later, when I grew up and knew what
Photoshop and Pagemaker were, I would have use for them.

Sure enough, yesterday I looked in those disks for the first time in
nigh onto 8 years. This time, instead of gobbledegoop, THEY WERE FULL
OF PAGEMAKER LAYOUTS OF ALL THE CHAPTERS, and EPS FILES OF ALMOST ALL
THE ART!!

I spent the rest of the day converting the 1600 dpi EPS files to 300
dpi Photoshop files whence they'll become teeny little 72 dpi jpegs,
such ones as LIES won't sue me for using more than once. Ironically,
whereas the EPS files had the art printed out in little thumbnail size
in the book, usually, the much smaller JPEGS show the same art FILLING
YOUR SCREEN, which is pretty spectacular in some cases.

Think of the panel of the hammer named Connie nailing the Dickhead
named The Con, blown up to full 17"... or mayhaps to a Cafe Press
poster.

Soon the Scatalog will look right, and also there will be umpteen
jillion new products, both Old and New Schools.

Thank Dobbs, it's not ALL Lies because Lies is REALLY particular how
his stuff is used. You'll PEE when you see the John Hagen-Brenner stuff
blown up.

Wait'll you see the PHOTOS of "BOB" in full detail!

AIEEE!!!!
