Agreed! I am with you there entirely. There can be and should be changes and hopefully eBooks will help bring that along in a manner helpful to authors, and to books in general. I don't pretend to see or understand how it will all come out in the end.

crossi, I didn't mean to come down so heavily on you earlier. In retrospect, I said too much, but I was already up in the air about something else and I only came to this site to take a break from that, but I think I was already carrying a hammer in my hand.

My apologies, if I seemed rude or overbearing.
