Ah, forgot about those. But they come in two varieties: 1) ones that I may have signed personally in someone's presence and 2) the 500 numbered ones that I signed for RGE when the hardcover was first published. These were sold at a slight premium (forget how much) to the original cover price of $39.99 and so are, I suppose, somewhat rarer.

I agree. The hardback, signed edition is a collector's item. I bought it and the soft cover version. I read the soft cover version, refer back to it, and underline short passages in it.
My parents taught me to treat books with respect, almost reverence, and I feel a little guilty underlining or highlighting in books, but it helps me learn.
Darn. I paid $28 on Amazon in the middle of last night when I couldn't sleep for thinking about the game. A couple of years ago I gave a friend my old first addition with the yucky yellow cover 'cause I never could find study time while I was working more than full time at a "real" job. Now after reading comments about how much it has changed in three editions, I'm on the fence about getting it back and either encasing it a protective cover and storing it inside a safe or using it as fuel for an epic hotdog/marshmellow roast...
I still love my yucky yellow cover edition even though there are now over a hundred loose pages in it, but they are in order. Sometimes I still quote from that book. What I like the most about my book is all the highlighting also in yellow that I did throughout the book.
With the large number of cases in the US, the risk of becoming infected is dramatically increased. So It's even more important to wear a mask when you are near someone who is not in your household (& when someone in your household has or is suspected of having a Coronavirus infection.)
I always have a mask with me when I am out of the house.
My wife was told yesterday that she was in the same room with someone who tested + for COVID 4 days prior to her being told. My wife was wearing a mask the entire time. We don't know why the + person was tested (contact to case or symptoms) but hope to find out Monday & get a test the same day.
Well, so far so good. No symptoms. On Monday morning I will go get tested.
This quarantine shit is hard. After all, I live in a small condo with son and spouse. I am wearing a mask, they are inconsistent indoors with it. I take it off to eat and drink at least 10+ feet away from them. We all tend to hang in the large living room. I don’t know. If I have Covid, the shit probably gets in the air or gets on whatever I touch, which means they might have it too and since they go out....
