eff-bot Python book ... revisited

Agreed! I took it to the beach this morning and learned a bunch, while
enjoying the sun. Thanks Frederik. :)

:: Admittedly, I plan to take it to Kinko's and get it double-sided and

This raises a question, which perhaps one of the physicists, chemists,
or Kinko's employees on this list can answer ... how to print Frederik's
book at home on both sides.

I printed the book both sides, using inexpensive paper, on my LaserJet.
Whenever I do this, the first pass (odd pages only) subjects one
surface to intense heat, buckling/warping the stack. This makes it
nearly impossible to feed the stack back through for the second (odd)
pass without jamming the printer.

However, this time, I let the stack sit for several days, to allow the
moisture in the fibers to reequalize (?) -- and it worked.

Anyone have a better (quicker) idea?
