Re: [ha-Safran]: Seeking advice
Andrea We would like to talk with you about buying the books, as, I'm sure, would several of the other bookseller participants on hasafran. We buy a great deal through the mails, paying all shipping charges ourselves, so the distances are not such a big deal. You may contact us to discuss what you have and an offer that would work for both of us. One cautionary note on online prices: As often as not, these seem to reflect wishful thinking rather than prices that real people will actually pay. Though those books we all see priced for $50.00 may well sell someday (or maybe even tomorow), what you don't see listed are the copies that were listed for $10.00 $20.00 and found real buyers last week and last month.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Thomas Friedman donates prize $ to synagogue library
Hello: It seems to me we live in America and one can donate his/her money to anyone. Why don't they get off Friedman's case? He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. Shabbat Shalom!

Re: [ha-Safran]: Thomas Friedman donates prize $ to synagogue library
I wish I could agree, but the target of the piece is clearly Friedman. But the path by which she gets to her conclusion is so tortured that whatever freight she sees has been dumped by the roadside long before then: Friedman donates to a shul library; that shul is Conservative; it's part of the Masorti movement; religion and politics are mixed in Israel; so the Masorti movement has taken political positions, maybe even on Israeli foreign policy; Friedman has written nice things about Israel. Voila! Friedman is really giving his money to support political causes in Israel. Hers is a media column, so from time to time she looks at journalistic ethics. I looked through her columns on Lexis-Nexis, although they're all available on line at the Village Voice site. I couldn't find anything criticizing black journalists for belonging to churches that hold political rallies on the Sunday before election day. By her logic, which of course I don't accept, Krugman's money, going to a public library, probably helps support a librarian who belongs to the ALA, whose annual resolutions have already been discussed at length here on this list. Such criticism would be absurd. So is this.
