re page numbering

[Mark Levinson <MarkL -at- gilian -dot- com>]

If I pick up a hundred-page book, take a moment or two to look 
through the frontal matter, begin reading the first page 
of the body of the book, and glance down to see that it's
page 10 rather than page 1, I'm delighted.  I say "Page 10
already!  Far out.  This is going to be easier than I thought."

If I look down and see page 1, I say "Rip off!  I looked through
the table of contents to see what the book is about, I even
glanced at the acknowledgements, and you're telling me that
didn't count?  You're saying I haven't even started the
book yet?  Unfair."
