B&N Chat

[Penny & Bryce Linsenmayer]

No: HPFGUIDX 4142

Hi --

Thanks to Joywitch for posting the guidelines -- see, I knew that B&N
rep was wrong when she told me we could submit questions ahead of time
(she just meant 30 minutes ahead of time).

We have 4 volunteers (including me) to post questions during that 30
minute time period so . . . here's how we should break it up:

1-11         Penny
12-22        Carole
23-33        Heidi
34 - 43      Kelley

Kelley, could you please fix my math for Question 37 on the exchange
rate (to say I'm not a math person is *such* an understatement)?  The US
$ figures are correct; the pounds figures are the ones that are wrong.
I was using 1.6 as the exchange rate as that's what it was at when we
visited the UK in April -- we can shift it to 1.45 if that's more
correct for now.  In that case,  I *think* it should be 3.44 lbs (sorry,
no sign in this email program)$5  ---  17.2 lbs/$25.

Is *that* right?  If not -- please just correct me.

After the AOL chat last night & the Today Show this morning, I'm not
sure I hold out much hope that many (or any) of our questions will get
answered.  But, it doesn't hurt to try.  Even if we get 1-2 answers, it
will be worth it I suppose.  I think she's taking only really softball
questions though, which is a shame.  We're not asking for plot
revelations; we just want some inconsistencies & mysteries cleared up.
Oh well.  Carole, Heidi & Kelley -- let us know if you've had a conflict
come up & you can't submit the questions.
