    Paper and publishing cost

    Thanks for the answers Mark, you know the cost of distribution didn't even cross my mind. It would seem when looking at all the considerations that a publisher has a job almost as difficult as the author in some ways.

    Paper and publishing cost

    Hopefully someone here with some experience or at least knowledge of publishing could explain something to me. I've read about how many factors affect the price of a book, I'm wondering to what extent does the paper used affect this? Is it more epensive to use the very thin bible type paper or...

    Future inventions.

    Rosemary do you put your hands all over the globe before or during the installation process? From memory the oil on your hands can make them blow really quick, though I'm no sparky. I think it will be something like a combination of Letos idea and dwndrgn. Parents will choose their babies...
