I'd like to get my hands on a copy of Maria Reicher, ed., States of Affairs<\/em> (Ontos Verlag, 2009).  I didn't find it in the ASU catalog and so I headed over to Amazon.com where I found a used copy for the entirely reasonable price of $9,999.99 plus $3.99 shipping and handling.  I kid you not<\/a>.  You might think they'd throw in free S & H on orders over $5,000.00.<\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe it is like this.  The whole world is Amazon's oyster, and in that wide world there are quite a few ontology freaks, your humble correspondent one of them, and probably a couple crazy enough to fork over $10 K for this collection of essays.  So why not ask a ridiculous price?  You just might get it. 
<\/span><\/p>\n

Does anyone in Ontology Land have a copy of this collection that he or she is willing to part with?<\/span><\/p>\n

I will put it to good use. I have been invited to contribute an essay to a volume commemorating the late David M. Armstrong.  My essay is tentatively entitled "Facts: Realism, Anti-Realism, Semi-Realism." So I need to be en rapport<\/em> with all the latest literature.<\/span><\/p>\n

Update (9\/3).<\/strong>  My explanation three paragraphs supra<\/em>  is mistaken.  See Mark B.'s comment for a much better one.<\/span><\/p>\n
