To whom it may concern: The Barnes & Noble discussion on Shadow of the Giant is under way. I've given them links to Hatrack ... we'll see if any come.

And if you want to look in, I THINK you can still join. Go to http://www.bn.com and in the upper-right area of the screen, click on the tab labeled "B&N University". I'd be more specific, but for some reason B&N is refusing my connection at the moment so I can't check it. Which isn't helpful, considering I'm supposed to be reponding to posts there.

You stuck your comma at the end of the link ^^

When I clickied it put it on the end, not sure if that's what kept you from getting there.

I wonder if more people than just you are having that problem. The board over there has been relatively quiet today. I've also linked this forum a couple of times from there (even though it meant I had to re-register - stupid hard-to-remember username)

I've visited the site before, but not the forums. Sneaky link, Mr. Card. Like I need another message board to get addicted to. My name's the same in the BNU discussion.

I'm so dim it didn't occur to me that of course people here already KNEW and if they were interested they were already THERE.

At first I was mad that I was too late, but then I realized I haven't read the book yet.

I'm going to go watch starship troopers now.

No offense to the kind Barnes and Noble folks, but the board layout for that classroom is horrible. If the same subjects were posted in a different board segment on Hatrack I wouldn't have a reason to go to their classroom.

That said, It's better than not having the discussions, so I'm glad it's there.

I'm glad you posted it, OSC. I'd forgotten about it and didn't have time to sign up when I first heard. Your post reminded me. I'm signed up now.

when my nickname gets booted three times in a row, I decide the fates are against participation in such a wonderful enterprise.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. It confuses my terribly.

And it's a dreadful thing when one's terribly is confused.

At least their messages ARE editable after all. I've gone back and changed all my titles (or most of them, I guess) away from the endles RE: RE: RE: RE: chains to something pertinent to what is actually inside my message.
