That's awesome, thanks so much! :)

Quote from: thatonekidatshows on April 28, 2024, 08:43:26 AMI noticed that the very beginning of my favorite chapter, the letter, starts with "My Dear Woman" in Total Abuse and the standalone publication and "Mrs. Anderson" in Proxy. I wonder why this (or any) alterations are made to the text(s) after the fact.
Are you referring to chapters four and eight? I'm looking at those chapters in Total Abuse and Proxy and they're identical in both books (chapter four starts with "My Dear Woman" and chapter eight with "Dear Mrs. Anderson"). I haven't read the standalone Tool published in 2013 however, so I don't know if that edition is different.

You're right! Jesus, I need to remember to not post when I decide to binge drink for the night. Disregard my previous rambling, ha ha.

Is there no available scan of Lazy, that isn't the one from Proxy? That one is incomplete...

The Proxy scan or the book text itself? There's two scans of Proxy out there to my knowledge and they both seem to have all the pages complete from a quick skim through. One of the two scans which just shows a scroll of single pages has pages 87 (end of Tick) and 88 (beginning of Lazy) repeated twice, then it has the order of the pages shuffled, so it goes from page 89 to 88, then 91 to 90, then page 93 to 92 etc.

Edit: a scan of the original paperback 1999 edition is also available from archive.org. As a sidenote, there's a nifty browser extension out there that can download books from there for offline use too (if they aren't already available on the usual illicit ebook sites).
