To summarize where this thread is currently stalled:
YOU can get, ABSOLUTELY FREE of cost, the bundle of ebooks offered as the January selection from Baen eBooks!
Quote:
Grantville Gazette Volume VI by Eric Flint
Cobra Gamble: Cobra War Book III by Timothy Zahn

If you know anything about the scifi genre, you will no doubt notice that this selection
in no way resembles a list of crap by unknown authors!
The Rules:
1] The free gift certificate can ONLY go to someone who is not already a Baen customer --or at least to an email address that isn't in their database.
2] If you are a registered Baen customer already [i wasn't] I guess you have to come up with an alternate email. How to fudge the rest of the details of the new customer account you'll need to set up, I'm not sure.
3] Please review the first post in this thread, and my 3 Tutorial posts on how it works. If you understand the deal, please continue.
4] I'm currently shuffling my hind paws, frozen at the checkout, with no email address to which to send a gift certificate. I don't want to just grab the freebies and end the chain without passing it on!
4]
SO The first person to PM to me with a valid, non-Baen-registered email address gets the certificate! 
5] Please review the 3 tutorial posts so that the Goodness can continue, and so that we don't have to once again bug the most excellent people at Baen eBooks to bail us out of a the jail of SNAFU once again.
Christmas in January!
--Jolly ol' SilverBear
