Get over it Randal. People can get a lot of content right out of  
Google books these days. Not to mention a lot of those are either out  
of print or open licensed. I downloaded a full copy of the NIS and  
NFS book the other day without a shred of guilt.

And I do seem to recall Tim himself asking all the authors to release  
their books to an open license after a certain number of years.
