Hi Glenn,

Glad to hear the shopping season went well for you and that the website is fulfilling its purpose.

For more on Wal-Mart's continuing problems with its partners (and really, what did they expect, partnering with Books-a-Millions, which was a total basketcase even when it was only trying to run its own offline biz):

latimes.com

Carol Huckabay, a Wal-Mart devotee who shops at
the San Diego store twice a month, said she wasn't even
looking for books when the site directed her to a list that
nearly shocked her out of her chair.
The 50-year-old Clairmont resident was looking for
the classic musical "Pal Joey" and typed the word
"videos" into the site's search box. That brought her to a
list of books about videos, including one called "Voyeur
Video Guide."
