If that isn't enough or too much Alex can always decide how to handle it. For now that at least gets us started.

But I'm not going to shell out $97 for THAT one! Anyway, this audio CD sounds like it might be fun. Maybe I can find it used on Amazon or Ebay for lots cheaper.

That date should be far enough off to allow people to order the book and read it, so I'm thinking, what, maybe Friday, May 15th? Is that too far away? Too soon?
