Somebody hit a soft spot. Actually, somebody with deep pockets, 50,000 books mailed out is no small chump change. Interesting reaction by the board of governing trustees...call the police as soon as their feathers are ruffled, though the publisher's comment at the end of the article says it all.
And the walls, come tumblin' down.

Tumblin', tumblin'.
Actions louder than words.
Someone has put their money where their mouth is.
This is equivalent to the "leafletdrop" bombimg runs over Nazi Germany by the RAF during WWII!
for your information
here in the United States, the Department of Homeland Security is being sued by an Arab-Anerican civil rights group.

Finally someone with deep pockets and nerve is supplying information to those that won't see it out. They now have no excuse for not knowing.
I wonder, though, how many will actually read the book.
What would be nice, from my point of view, is for someone else with deep pockets to buy a job lot of my book for distribution! I would especially like George W Bush to read it. He needs to. Desperately!
