Sounds fun. However, I wonder if we would be able to recover all the expenses on postage among contributors with the presumably higher selling price of the book... If not, maybe it would be also a good idea to use the money to collectively buy several copies and send them to public libraries, hospitals or whatever place/association we consider.

If we send a copy around all contributors to sign, we could then ebay (or otherwise) it. Each contributor pays (or other wise arranges) to move the book on to the next signee. Problems: time - this will undoubtedly take some time but it may be that conclusion falls at a time when sales have fallen off and it may then provide a little extra publicity. access - there may be some contributors who are not able to receive or send on the book, or feel that security may be an issue. I'm happy to make up a routing map and for the idea to be discussed onlist. Can I please ask contributors to contact me _OFF LIST_ with their yea or nay to this idea and their location if yea. The information will not be made public. I do not wish anyone to feel pressured to participate if they feel it will be too problematic or stressful to them. If all cannot take part, then we will not proceed. ============ Nice idea. It's very hard to sell things on ebay right now, though.
