Re: Learn More About e-RPG

[Chuck Lundgren <lundgren@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Perhaps you can explain what I'm bitter about? I am the author of a 
wildly-successful book in 1991. However, I'm not really bummed that the 
"System/36 Power Tools" books isn't really selling any more. <g>

You're reading way too much into my messages. Our last discussion regarding 
Amazon was about my response to what I considered an unfair of Java books 
and the e-RPG book. This time it's about "news" that isn't really "news", 
but an "ad".

Are you saying that promotional material belongs in this list? I've been 
under the impression that subscribers (including me) have little patience 
for too many vendor promotions. Perhaps it's just me.
