OotP publishing trivia

[Anne]

Speaking of trivia about the publication of OotP... a friend of mine 
lives in northeastern Wisconsin, near Peshtigo. She told me that a 
particular paper mill in or near Peshtigo had been contracted to 
provide ALL of the paper for OotP (apparently this is a big story in 
that area) --- all postconsumer (recycled) paper too. At least that's 
how I remember her telling it. I could try to look it up online. My 
response to her was something like: Let's see, 896 pages times 8 
MILLION copies (first run) equals all the trees within 100 miles of 
Peshtigo!

(glad to hear it's postconsumer paper; I wouldn't want OotP to 
devastate the ecosystem)
