You can obtain a copy of ANSI/IEEE Standard 754-1985, "IEEE Standard
for Binary Floating Point Arithmetic" by sending $6.50 plus $2 handling
to:
	IEEE Service Center
	445 Hoes Lane
	Piscataway, NJ 08854

NJ residents must add 6% sales tax to the $6.50 (= $6.89).  IEEE
members get a 10% discount (on the $6.50, *not* on the $2 handling) if
you include your member number with the order.

Canadian orders can be mailed to:
	IEEE Canadian Regional Office
	7061 Yonge St.
	Thornhill, Ont. L3T 2A6
and the conversion rate is US$ * 1.33 = CDN$

There are quantity discounts for 10 or more copies.  Details can be
directed to +1 201 981 0060.

I have all this information handy because I just ordered a copy....
