Yes, I agree there's much more work to be done; guess you didn't see my notes at http://didi.com/brad/mapOfScience. Fortunately tens of thousands actually like that messy text (seems to better telegraph the actual processes of science than straight lines, at least). And a thousand or so prints are being shipped so far.
If you can write better layout algorithm math, perhaps we can collaborate?
That seemed to be a cacheing bug in Drupal's standard shopping cart module. We turned it off early this morning and have not seen it reappear. Should be fine now; thanks for the concern!
I apologise profoundly for this. (I was one of the co-creators of the poster, and the Information Esthetics organization distributing the print is my responsibility.)
We are using a standard Drupal shopping module and I have received two reports of this. I am sure others have seen the problem and not reported it.
We have a Drupal guru looking at that code, and hundreds of orders have cleard fine, but for now I suggest people do exactly what gammaxy did: if someone else's information show up, wait until tomorrow.
I will remain personally responsible for any mis-charged or undelivered prints. You may find me by Google-ing "Brad Paley": e-mail addresses are available on my various Web sites.
Thank you for the interest! Sorry about the glitch.

I am extremely sorry about these problems as will make good on any errors.
