I'm sure a compilation of, say, soc.singles postings would do quite well as a mass-market paperback; it might take a bit of creative editing, but I'm sure you can see the possibilities... Just a small matter of talking to my friends in the publishing business. You might talk to Brian Reid about alt.gourmand. A while back some one was going to publish the USENET cookbook. So, he now coypyrights each posting. He has a thing called the USENET Community Trust. I am sure he'll give more details if he feels like it and sees my post. -- =Dennis L.
