I pre-ordered this thing on Amazon 12/9/04. I checked my order status today and it shows the expected arrival as 9/8/06. WTF?! So, this book IS out of the press and in people's hands, right?
I have a right to be pissed off, right?

hell yes... i got mine over a month ago... great book btw... i was really impressed with the way they used oyster mushrooms to clean up land contaminated with diesel fuel... it seems oysters love the stuff, and will clean out severely contaminated ex-junkyard space in a single season...

I heard him speaking on "New Dimensions" a couple of months ago (The NPR program out of San Francisco [of course SF!]). He was talking about using fungi to clean up toxic waste spills and a Gaia paradigm. It's weird--he didn't sound like I thought he'd sound from his pics. Pretty well-spoken guy, IMHO. Far better than some of the other guests on that program.

A friend associated with the San Francisco myco society mentioned that Stamets has been working on propagation with stem butts and cardboard layers.
is this covered in this book?
