Update #16: Update: Premiums
Just a quick note to let you all know that premiums are in the works. Books will go out this week, and I hope to have the wristbands and anti-robot keychains in hand for shipping next week. (The keychains apparently ran into some FCC issues at the border. I didn't get the story completely straight, but it seems the cloaking technology works on the same part of the frequency spectrum as a couple of major communications satellite and, well, long story short, they almost knocked DirecTV off the air during the BCS game. It's all straightened out now, though. As far as I know the wristbands are just wristbands.)
Thanks again for your support, and I hope the New Year is treating you well.
