BBV - Amazon: 'we will not be able to obtain'
Amazon today notified me that they will not be able to get me a copy of Black Box Voting. I was under the impression that the book was now available.
Anyone know what the deal is?

2. You seriously have to wonder.
I hope it just is quite ready.
With all of the political reading on the best seller list these days Bev's book has a real shot toward the top. The corporate crooks will do anything to stop it.

9. You can get it here:
http://shop1.got.net/plan9/Search.bok?category=Black+Box+Voting

<g>

Plus, books bought direct from us pay a higher royalty to Bev.

Re: Amazon.

Don't suspect anything as intelligent as a conspiracy from Amazon, since the real truth is incompetence. I told them the book would be late, and yet they don't pay attention.

I'll call them tomorrow and remind them again.
