UUUUUUU can determine what I do with it

And make sure I get a copy, please! I'll save it for the next time that the weather isn't so "dry" around here.

10. OK, it's unanimous. Scan and host. |
|
On the other hand, maybe it isn't necessary to scan anything aside from the cover. I can just transcribe it and fellow netizens can read it in Adobe Reader or something.
Or should I scan each page in case people question its authenticity or doubt it's a faithful transcription or refuse to believe it was ever written?

.. almost everything gets on the web, it's like a law of nature or something.
Even if everyone here votes nay, it is unstoppable.

5. As horrifying as it sounds... |
|
maybe we could enlist the aid of our American brethren (choke); the fundies - distribute it to them, and start a grass roots campaign to have this "disgusting porno" banned from the country so as to "save the children". It would at least make for amusing political theatre.....

The novel of a strong and beautiful woman who broke all the rules of the American frontier...
Sophie Dymond had overcome nineteenth-century prejudices to succeed as publisher of a hugely popular women's magazine. But when she left New York to revisit her native Wyoming, where her sister had died mysteriously, she left her prestige and power far behind. Waiting for Sophie was a world where women were treated either as decorative figurines or as abject sexual vassals...where wives were led to despise the marriage act and prostitutes pandered to husbands' hungers...where the relationship between women and men became a kind of guerilla warfare in which women were forced to band together for the strength they needed and at times for the love they wanted. In her effort to grasp the meaning of her sister's life and death, Sophie discovers the secret that tainted her life and begins to understand the experience of the vast majority of silent, trapped women.

Maybe I'll transcribe it and THEN place it on the auction block.
$500 is a pretty generous return for an item for which I paid less than a dollar

- You'll get more money on eBay - You won't have to put so much work into it - Let's face it, no one's gonna care except DUers.

okay..see if you can reserve the local library for a "reading"...distribute flyers through town that you will be reading excerpts from VP Cheney's wife's literary classic....
it should be highly entertaining...
