Hello, Jack Balkin--
I posted your blog post about your book on the BookPeople mailing list:
http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/bparchive?year=2006&post=2006-08-10,2
A few minutes ago I received an email from a person on the list who got
an error msg when he tried to download. I hadn't yet downloaded it
myself, so I tried. I got a blank page when I went to
CulturalSoftware.com, using my usual set-up (Mac OS 10.3.9/Netscape
7.2). Then I tried using IE browser, which got me the page.
I don't know what browser the other person uses, but I got your email
address from your Yale contact page and sent it to him. I hope you can
resolve whatever the problem is (for me as well as for him)--I was
looking forward to reading your book.
Thanks,
J Flenner

[Moderator: I can download and view the PDF chapters, using Mozilla
or Firefox as a browser, and xpdf or Apple Preview as a PDF viewer.
I do notice the PDF file sizes are rather large, and may be page scans
rather than text-based, which may pose a problem for folks with
visual impairments or who want to extract text from the PDFs. - JMO]
