Wasn't it a mix of old classics and new crap?

The back cover of my edition does mention a "an all-new, never-before-published Gil Hamilton adventure!"
This collection is of rather mixed quality so far, including that I simply cannot take organlegging seriously, including all of his numerous justifications, and its supposedly inevitable consequences - which made me completely skip one of the stories (so far). It's dumb, and for some reason I can no longer just overlook it to read the story at hand. Maybe it's a bee-sting thing going on.
