If I may jump in on this for a moment. The only way we
would ever sell or handle any books ourselves, would be
if we chose to buy them from Lightning Source and sell
them.

Otherwise all sales would be handled by Lightning Source
and they would provide us with strict accounting for each
sale. They are a division of Ingram Book Services, which
handles half the books in the world and is a multi-billion
dollar enterprise.

Once the book(s) are in the Ingram database, we can just
direct any buyers to Amazon, Wal-mart, any book store with
a computer, and a zillion other on-line vendors. 

Lightning Source would then send us a royalty check, I
think it's every three months. We can just have them send 
it to Max and he can disburse any funds.

Also, I have a bunch of documents that Lightning Source
sent me. They are pretty thorough in breaking down the 
costs and establishing what we can expect from them. I
tried to send them to some people over the mailing lists
email, but the file size was to big and it crashed. I also
sent them to Ian, so if anyone wants a copy, they would
need to provide him or I with a outside email address.
