First I want to congratulate Chris! I viewed his crash course back in Oct 2008 and it was such an eye-opener that it fired me up to share his perspective with my friends and family. Alas, most did not want to hear it and worse yet, thought the Crash Course was wild-eye fringe sky-is-falling nonsense.While it saddens me that so many in my circle continue to choose to live with those blinders on, I am comforted that the Crash Course and Chris's material are really getting out there...albeit, still primarily outside-the-mainstream milieu.

I hope his book finally breaks the barrier and I understand that in order to do that, you have to sell your book via the traditional booksellers - if nothing else, you need to move your book up the popularity list to get exposure. In a simpler world this would not be true but still I agree with Don and wish everyone would consider ordering directly from this site. On a personal note, I ceased buying anything from Amazon (I had no idea how difficult that would be) when they co-opted to the fascistic edicts from the US Gov and dropped Wikileaks from its cloud computing. http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/dec/11/wikileaks-amazon-denial-democracy-lieberman

I second the motion that dps suggests!!  Everything in that post makes sense.  Why give Amazon and Visa your money when you can support the author directly?  And consider giving generously.  Wherever I can, I try to steer my business away from the big box stores and mega-corporations and give the struggling small business person in my local community a fair chance to stay voted in.
