P.S. A fantastic and fun way to get your hands on a copy of TFS is to set up a group order. You’ll get a major discount for your classmates, AND you’ll you get your copy included in the shipment at NO CHARGE, just for setting it up. It doesn’t take much work. Once we decide to run with it, I’ll set up a special checkout page for your classmates. Then I ship you the books and you hand them out.
