   That may all be as you say, and I hope it is.  If so, my apologies.   
   It's just that since the Internet reached the masses, there is no end to   
   the schemes dreamt up to leech on the attention of the millions.  Just   
   the other day I came across someone publishing "books" on Amazon of   
   reprinted Wikipedia articles.  (I haven't seen them, but the people   
   reviewing them on Amazon have.)  There's someone else who produces   
   computer-generated "books" by trawling the Internet for data on things   
   like the market in onion futures in Lower Slovenia.  There may even be   
   someone, somewhere, dumping Gutenberg pages onto paper and selling them   
   through Lulu.   
      
   Such is the world we live in.  Anything that looks like it could be a   
   scam will have an uphill struggle to be taken seriously.
