And, of course, Harriet gets a mention, as well. Darling Harriet. I just love the line that, due to her strenuous reviewing schedule, she wasn't available for comment. :p :D :eek:

My favorite quote: "then there are those for whom the ranking becomes more important than the subject. Harriet Klausner’s got to be the prime example of that.”

And the number one UK reviewer: “She has been a particularly bad reviewer,” he says, “who has been accused of many things and her activities have given reviewers a bad name in some quarters.”

Hard to believe Amazon has been around that long. Yet at the same time, pre-Amazon days are fuzzy.
