A Secular Franciscan looks at the world...
with a more jaundiced eye than ever...

SWMBO and I

were very active with this for quite a while. Early adopters, as it were. We've not been involved for some time. Perhaps we'd better get started again...

Bookcrossing; Passing the book

I love this:

Of course. It's the way of capitalism. We don't want people to share and be generous. We want to sell, sell, sell! I'm sure if they could get the governments of the world to regulate it or make it illegal they would.

I had a response once from someone in Australia who had gotten one of my books. Once they start traveling they really can move around...
