Michael, you've apparently missed some notes. I discussed this several times. No, two weeks prior to the set-in-stone shipping date he blithely announced that his printers had told him they couldn't handle the job, and he was now having to search for new printers. Buried in that notice was the fact that the book is still not finished yet, so what the printers have to do with anything is a moot point until the book is actually finished. What he does, and what he's been doing for the last two years, is buying himself three months at a time - every time he's supposed to ship, something else goes wrong and then it's three months later. He "says" that it will now probably be December. Well, that's exactly what he did last year. It won't be December, it won't be March, it will be the 12th... of Never. I think the book has become an albatross - his Waterloo.
