Is that a ship from Sid Meier’s 1987 game Pirates! (possibly the best game ever made) sailing on that progress bar?

Here’s some more irony for you: Go to “this page”:http://www.press.uchicago.edu/ebooks/free_ebook.html on Monday February 1 and you can download a free copy of _Piracy_ in e-book format. Almost like stealing. But, yeah, only on February 1. (But for the rest of the month of February you can get another Adrian Johns book, _The Nature of the Book: Print and Knowledge in the Making_ as an e-book.) This is the URL: http://www.press.uchicago.edu/ebooks/free_ebook.html
