"Assault on Reason" by Al Gore for $7.49! At Audible.com, membership is $7.49 monthly for three
months. You get a free book each month. I am listening to "Assault on Reason" right now as I am typing this. It IS NOT read by Al, but it is the complete, unabridged book.

1. Sounds like a deal, but I'm curious ...
... I've never "read" an audio book. On non-fiction books like "Assault on Reason", I usually like to go back for references. Have you ever "read" an audio book before? And, if so, is there any way to find things you'd like to reference?

2. Yes, it lets you "set bookmarks" wherever you want. This is the only way I can get it now - at this
cheap price. By the time it comes down to such a low price on Amazonetc. I'll be out of the mood to read. Plus I really do like to listen to someone read to me - my eyesight isn't what it used to be. I enlarge my print here on DU.

9. Did you get the $7.49 deal. If not quit it and rejoin under a diffeent name. The 7.49 is monthly
Edited on Fri Jun-01-07 06:44 AM by patricia92243
three months - then you can quit after that if you want to.

I definately used my credit for Al's book. Good deal!

10. Why didn't Al do the audio book?
I always prefer when they're read by the author.
