I really cannot imagine who would complain to us about publishing MEIN KAMPF if that is what we're still talking about, whether it's legally public domain or not. It's all over the Net. That's why I don't think it's really essential for us to do it. Anne Do you like to breathe? Then save the trees! Begin a personal relationship with an ebook TODAY!

Yeah, you're probably right. Then again, there's some part of me that says the more places we have copies, the more likely it is that such a valuable document from an extremely important time in our recent history will be preserved. PG's just great because it gets mirrored all over the place :-) Cheers, Holden
