OK, so I had some time to kill this morning... I counted 123 posts from Jon this year so far. In those, not counting his .signature (which is, as protocol demands, not more than 4 lines long), he mentioned his book in 8. Some of those are replies to posts that essentially ask for pointers to books. A few are more blatantly self-serving, but even so, it doesn't seem excessive to me. - ken
