Amazon problems??
I have been trying to order Clarke's book for the last 1/2 hour. Everytime I get to the checkout, the site freezes up on me. Anyone else having problems?

1. Probably swamped with requests. At least, I hope so.
I think the BushBots are too late to stop publication. They have more lead time on Kitty Kelley's book, and will probably stop that. We'll see.

2. Try this site:
http://www.booksite.com/texis/scripts/community/homepage.html?sid=1425

It's one of my favorite independent bookshops; and you can order safely online. :hi:

3. I JUST placed an order there 15 or so minutes ago.
Went thru like butter - no problems.

4. Thank you. I didn't know if they were getting swamped with
orders or not. :)

5. Forget Amazon

Order it from your local independent book store. Mine can get most orders to me in 3-4 days (faster than Amazon can ship), and you'll be supporting a local business.

6. BAMM-Books-A-Million.Com
is a good site too. If you have one of their membership cards their on-line prices are usually better than Amazon's and they also usually have a good deal on shipping.
