I hope this is not OFF TOPIC but Kelly really wants to know:

   How come some people are selling this book ahead of the release
date? This reporter says "purchased" not "obtained" or "given an
advanced copy in order to write a review". It certainly seems as if
anyone could have gone into that same store and gotten their own copy.
It's no wonder there are SPOILERS out there. I'm sure this is not the
only instance of a breach in security, which I know is very tight. My
daughter is working for a children's museum that is hosting a HP
Midnight Party and they had a terrible time getting permission to even
get a shipment of books for their guests. The books were expected
Wednesday but didn't arrive. The person in charge, the one who signed
her life away in order to get them, is planning on hiding them so they
aren't tampered with. I for one am really mad about this.
