Hi Jim:

Excellent idea.!  No objections from me.

Best,

Evidently the success of the LUG book continues, according to blurb.com.
It's one of their all-time successes, but what they find most interesting is
the concept of a collective book effort from a diverse (and widely
dispersed) group.
....
If there are no objections about this from the book's photographers, I will
change the retail price to $60 hardcover/$50 paperback on February 1, with
profits going to Project H.O.M.E. That gives anyone on the LUG who hasn't
ordered a copy a few days to do so for at-cost rates.  I will also ask
blurb.com to donate their profits from the book sale for this as well (the
PR alone should more than compensate them for the loss of LUG book profits.)
