I very much appreciate the publicity. I'm sorry that this book isn't available through the usual outlets. I pitched this book to several publishers and they all rejected it for the same reason. It was too short! Publishers want 250-300 pages, something with some heft, not some pamphlet-sized anything, no matter how cogent. This seems curious, since the #1 complaint everyone I talk with mentions is that they don't have enough time to crack 300 page books. Send me a note and I'll get you a copy. david schmaltz Hal:
