The Yellow Book
 

Ok - I'm going to buy the book very soon. Do new editions come out ever or should I just buy what is sold on Amazon? Thanks

The Sixth And Last
 

The sixth edition (1982) is the most current. Homer left revisions for a seventh, but despite persistent promises since his death in 1983, there has been none.

You should buy the book at www.thegolfingmachine.com instead of amazon. Amazon has 'resale' copies and are generally more expensive. I bought another copy the other day as a gift for a friend... I think it was approx. $26 including shipping from the golfing machine sight.

Seventh Edition Notes?
 

I have seen many references to the seventh edition notes and have seen several posts, from different people, which communicate, in detail, what some of the notes include.:)

Who has copies of these notes and how did they get them?
Would it be possible for the common TGM golfer (not AI) to get a copy of the notes[-o< , as an alternative to waiting for the elusive seventh edition:confused: ?

I don't you can get them easily. Only a select few have access or copies to the notes and they are not likely to be available to mere mortals such as you or I.
Its just a pity, that the 7th was never published.

7th Edition
 

On cassette tape, I have Tom Tomasello saying..."I have the 7th edition too"....the conversation between Tommy and myself was about how the book became longer by comparing the 1st edition to the 6th edition (approximately 100 more pages in the 6th)...I wish I could turn the clock back to see if Tommy was refering to an actual printed copy of the 7th edition!!!

Bringing Home Baby
 

Wonderful.

Did he say how the editorial process was (or is) being handled? Has there been any kind of Review Board appointed? Or is it just a Committee of One? I have not been contacted for any input, and I don't know anyone else who has.

I promise there are errors in the 7th Edition revisions that he alone will not catch. There is at least one major change that demands changes in several areas for consistency of presentation. And there is text that unless rewritten does not say what Homer meant to say. Not to mention the errors in the 6th that the 7th revisions don't catch.

I applaud the promise of publication.

And will give the actual event a standing ovation.

But the job is bigger than one man.

Here's hoping he gets it right.

Oh, my

Charlie :sad:

Does anyone really think it is coming out?

I'll stick with the forum. Much better company and dynamic too.
