A quick check shows the Tomfoolery album is available now for download on
iTunes for only $9.99--you could be listening to it in the comfort of your
home in about 15 minutes!

We bought the Lehrer CD set (along with Wagner's Ring and most of  
Gilbert and Sullivan) in time to get us through a long road trip  
stateside in 2000.  Our favorite has a lead in beginning 'If you've  
ever wondered about mathematicians and how they got that way...' and  
mentions an 'index from old Vladivostock telephone directory'.  We  
are also very fond of the 'Periodic Table' and 'Fight Fiercely Harvard'.
Everyone - particularly Anglo-Saxons married to mathematicians should  
have that set.
