I found the help to be informative in terms of the special characters needed to format the post. I found them using the help on the left or just going to the Wikipedia Cheatsheet. Fernando 02:55, 25 April 2007 (EDT)

[edit] First Thoughts

This approach to learning is unique. I am finding that it uses different intellectual faculties than face-to-face communication might entail. One has to call on different modes of thinking to collaborate in an online environment. I enjoy it.

[edit] Textbook

A number of people have said that the bookstore is having troubles with our textbook. Either they do not have it or they do not have the new version (2nd edition). You can:

Go to Amazon and order it for about $44 in a couple days at: http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/0470018666/ref=s9_asin_title_1-hf_favarpcbss_2238_p/103-7633099-3506260?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0SQA1VKYD5RETKEKJVXJ&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=279667301&pf_rd_i=507846
Go to Barnes & Noble
etc.
