Still, I would like to see some printed version become available to the the general fandom. (I could be totally wring, but I also don't think plans to mass produce the book would really have effected the auction sales-- a hand-written first edition? I just don't see it.)

Michal did a tremendous job putting together the thank you book and we were all so thankful that so many people contributed. That having been said, a certain member of HP Progs who shall remain nameless (hint: not me) never got his/her thank you in and Michal didn't want to send it with out his/her contribution since he/she started the whole hpprogs thing. Although, this WAS discussed in episode 61 (which will be out later today) and hopefully will be remedied very very very soon. In the meantime, feel free to Spam the person with comments about his/her tardiness. Mizz Andy- I’ll field that one.

(Does that sound bitter?) Michal - Did we ever hear back from Ms Rowling re our compliments book? Wow, I knew it would go for higher than the estimate but that is a huge amount

That's amazing. (Not to be totally selfish... but is anyone else thinking it's kind of unfair that most normal fans will probably never get to read this?) Man. That’s amazing.
