Subject: [Leica] LUG Book Update, and a Question for the Contributors

Steve,

The original intention was to produce a book for LUG folks to share.  That's
why the pricing was set at cost--this was a no-profit project.

However, when blurb.com noted that we would be attracting attention to our
book, and since everyone on the list has had a shot at purchasing the book
at cost, why not introduce a charitable purpose to this?  That's how the
charity addition came to pass.

Of course, we can always start with a charitable addition for the 2007
edition.

So start shooting!  Only 306 more photography days until December 1.

Best,
Jim Shulman
Bryn Mawr, PA

Just a thought, but why not have the book sold at the 'charity' price from
the beginning? That way someone will benefit with every copy sold.
