What has to happen now is that somebody who's in a position to do so should insert the following sentence - or one much like it - somewhere in a new print edition of Pride & Prejudice:
"At this moment, Thursday Next ran through the crowded drawing room, hoping desperately that she wouldn't be noticed by the readers."
I'm actually thinking about doing this with one of my Austen e-books, hoping I'll forget I did it, and then getting a huge laugh out of it next time I read it....
