First, welcome EvilRooster & I really mean that. We often pick on each other here. I know that Taylor, Nate & I have had our share. So it's not just you or even Tor. We're a passionate bunch.

I, for one, will apologize for causing any ill feelings. I'm really not a mean old man - well I am old and a man so 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

I do find it quite interesting that Tor.com which has no affiliation with Tor Publishing but has a moderator whose on-line name is Torie gives away for free, several ebooks that are published by Tor Publishing. That just seems like a lot of coincidences to me. I wonder how much Tor.com paid Tor Publishing for those giveaways to advertise their general SciFi forum. But Since there is no affiliation I'm sure it was a good business decision by Tor Publishing.

Other than that, "Yeah - What RickyMaveety said."

EvilRooster, please stay and join in the fun. Just keep in mind that we really, really like ebooks and want to see them succeed big time!
