Fuck you, USPS, Royal Mail, UPS, Fed-Ex, etc.

Actually there were several of Heinlein’s works that differed in several formats. My reader’s companion (indispensible, IMHO) doesn’t list any for Sixth Column, though.

I do know that my Galaxy copies that contain ‘Starship Soldier’ differ from the text in some ways from ‘Starship Troopers’.

Fenris, I really just got lucky one day. I know I have to take a back seat to your collection. I just throw money at mine, you seem a devotee.

I salute you!

And I’ll be helpful here.

Heinlein fans…go buy this:

It’s the essential annotated Heinlein bibliography. Well done. Warning, I ordered from Amazon and it took MONTHS (how’s that, Fenris) to arrive because the publisher doesn’t have a working agreement with Amazon. The link above is straight to the publisher.

Jonathan: A) Kidding aside, I am pretty jealous! B) You’re right about The Reader’s Companion

And that sentence in my previous post should read: I’d read that there were text differences.

And where are my Pratchett books dammit?

I had a package ready to ship to London on September 10, 2001. I was going to go the post office on my day off–Wednesday, September 12, 2001. I finally mailed it Wednesday, September 19, 2001.

It got there January 23, 2002.

Aaargh. That’s scary AND depressing, Annie!

ANOTHER mail delivery has come and gone without it.

I’m suffering here. I hope you all realize this.
