Thanks for the tip. Tracked this book down and got a copy. Very nice production. Just have to hunt for a reasonable price.If anyone wants a signed copy of the book, there are a few available here: http://subterraneanpress.com/store/product_detail/the_martian
The book is pretty good if you like a lot of scientific detail and humor.
Finally saw the movie this week and concur with all the positive reviews posted on here. Loved the special effects. Good story, good acting. and very close to the book itself. Will watch it again. After all, who doesn't love a good Mars movie?:wink2: -- Al
