Mixing lists again...

It is somewhat amusing to compare the list if "Uniquely Bestselling Books"
for Reed (URL below) with the one for UCI at

<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/cm/browse-communities/-/214290/002-5982187-1403821>

where computers and investing dominate.

In a move seemingly designed to enrage corporate America and privacy
advocates in one swell foop, Amazon.com is publishing bestseller lists
grouped by the domain name of the buyer. Check out the reed.edu list:

You'll be happy to know that sex, drugs, and Thucydides all made the top
ten.
