The basic rules should be wrapped in copper foil, the standard rules in silver foil, and the advanced rules in gold foil.
Then what gets the tinfoil?
I'm sure you can find several folks floating around the forum that are in need of some snazzy new headware.

Some essays included in the book:
In the very beginning one with the title: "WoW is based on Warcraft which in turn was based on DnD or If we cut out everithing from DnD which WoW borrowed from us we won't have anything left!!!"
Before the character creation part: "Moving on from Tolkien or How to realise the magic from your teenager years is not coming back and how to accept that."
In the DMG: "Why Gaddafi is not the model DM or Hate to break it to you but if every player quits in disgust your homebrew setting is useless."

the player handbook had a player ability score aptitude test, that can be taken to determin ability scores. weights and viruses to test strength and constituation are included. the only playable race is human. these have been added becouse the new PHB campaign setting will be  the adventure starts when they take the amusement ride and the Dm asigns character classes.
