" but perhaps Plan9Pub (David Allen)"

Blast.

I am not happy to hear this guy's name come up as being a DU poster. He's a book publisher and unfortunately, he's the publisher of one series that I'm rather fond of. Now I need to figure out how to continue to support the author while minimizing the amount that his idiot publisher gets. (From personal conversations, I knew the guy was a bit of a kook a few years ago, but I hadn't realized how far down the kookiness path he'd gone.)

Now you know why I am looking for a Major book publisher for the DUFUs. These small web based publishers screw the authors by playing on their vanity. I could easily get such a publisher to publish a DUFU book but I would rather WAIT and get it right.

BTW, as DUmmies go, David Allen isn't as screwed up as the typical DUmmie. He actually has good info on Bev Harris having worked with, and gotten burned by her. Allen claims that Harris raked in closer to a cool million rather than the $300,000 she recently claimed. I expect to see Allen testify against Bev at her upcoming trial. Hopefully this trial will be covered by Court TV.
