Hi folks,

I just downloaded A Brief History of Time, the Updated and Expanded Tenth Aniversary Edition by Steven Hawking. It's desperately in need of a rescan. It's quite bizarre, actually--it looks as if somehow all the formatting and text and color markup got incorporated into the text of the book. That is, names of colors and various other formatting cues are scattered throughout the book. There's so much gibberish and junk it's virtually unreadable.

Anyway, could it be added to the fair list for some intrepid rescanner to rescue?

Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know. But I do not approve.
And I am not resigned.

-- 'Dirge Without Music', Edna St. Vincent Millay

Ring the bells that still can ring,
forget your perfect offering,
there is a crack in everything,
that's how the light gets in.
--Leonard Cohen
