How any one had the opportunity to read the issue?

I freely admit I'm waiting for my hard copy to read from cover-to-cover but will definitely comment when I get the chance to finish it!

I am also waiting for my hardcopy. I like to read them cover to cover also.

I notice that when I try to open the PDF on Windows VISTA, I get a prompt for a password. And of course there is no password, so I can't open it.

On all other platforms, including all other versions of Windows (i.e. XP), it's fine and opens with no problem.

I know there are some people whose proposed solution will be "don't use Windows" but given the fact that a lot of Vista people may be downloading and buying the book, there has to be a solution to this.

Perhaps its a Lulu issue?

Just ordered my bound copy. Try to keep me away from it!

4/30. It came today, and I've paged through it in anticipation of giving it the time it deserves. I will say I'm already very impressed with Larry Allen's poetry.
