Posted on Friday, March 23, 2007 - 07:17 am:        Wow Bkindustryprof I come to the boards, after a few days and this is the first post I read. In case you did not know, AALBC.com runs these discussion boards. AALBC.com sells books. When one promotes the on-line purchase of a book, it is proper form to recommend the purchase through AALBC.com using the "Buy any Book" link or by visiting the author's profile page http://authors.aalbc.com/eric.htm. This is not a requirement but it is comsidered it is a lot more polite and respectful of the site. I know Borders is planning to close a bunch of Waldens bookstores, has taken back its store from Amazon and is now making a big push to claim a larger share of the on-line book sales pie. Do you work for Borders or have some other financial interest in recommending them here? I ask because your link leads to a form not a description of Eric's next book. Borders books can advertise here, or give AALBC.com a commission on sales rather than being given free promotion. I know you might say, "...but Troy you give Hue-man, Karibu, Cush and other books stores free promotion..." I would say, "I know, but the difference should be obvious."
