1. FYI to Oregonians and SW Washingtonians and Powells.com customers...

Sorry to offer an alternative to Amazon, as supporting DU is the way to go, but Powell's is currently selling "Before the Storm" for $7.98 a copy.

5. Isn't Amazon a solidly red company anyway?

I know Powell's is heavy in the blue column, but I had heard rumors that Amazon is red. I would rather buy the book at powells and donate the difference to DU and avoid paying the neocon middleman.

2. Ok, it looks like Thom Hartmann's book is our title for June.

I love Thom Hartmann & am looking forward to reading this book. I hope this topic generates some good discussions this month!

3. For the future:

Question: this is the first time I've stumbled on this forum so how does it work exactly? Everyone just reads the book and then there is an on line discussion or thread such at this?

edited to give the appearance of enlightenment.

4. Basically, yes.
