"You Did It"

An email from David Kirby, Author of "Evidence of Harm" and NY Time reporter:

"Hi - For a writer, I am pretty much at a loss for words. I never dreamed this would go so far. It speaks volumes to the power that you, the parents, wield in this controversy, and you can bet that your adversaries are taking note. You have managed to ratchet up the pressure several notches in 24 HOURS, sending my book from 1850 to #4 in the process, beating out Oprah (as much as I want people to read Faulkner…)

Thank you ALL for making this a brilliant day that I will never forget. The week’s sales figures (and NYT list) will be out next Wednesday, I think, and published in the paper two weeks from this Sunday (again, I think). If the book reaches the top 15, it will be in the paper. (Books sold until this Saturday night are included in the weekly numbers).

Thanks again, and special thanks to Leslie Weed, Shelley Reynolds, and Dave Taylor, for promoting EOH day, to JB Handley for that huge NYT ad, and to Lenny S, for creating this list and being such a gut-splitting dinner companion in Chicago."
