Yes, I guess so. Here is what you said:

You now say that because they're not available through *amazon.com*,
they're not available easily in the UK, no, wait, they actually *are*
available through amazon.com... but? I don't really understand your
problem: you're turning your web site into a commercial enterprise. You
might as well admit that. Look on Julian's or Karin's web site: they give
ordering information on books *and they don't make any money from the sale
of the books.*
You're setting up all these other topics so you can make money off of book
sales, so why not be up front about it? Doing it in this "for the general
good" attitude is annoying to others besides myself. Just thought I'd share.

Personally, I think it does matter what I think. Your greed speaks for
itself. And I don't owe you anything. Only people who order books through
your web site will owe you anything.
