Sharing EU with a friend

[orrery]

I was so happy with The Electric Universe that I bought 5 copies. One to hold on to myself, and the other 4 I have regularly loaned to co-workers, family members, and friends.

The 4 copies that i have been loaning out have just reached their 100th person. I have met only one individual who has put up resistance. (and this person formed his entire resistance via wikipedia criticism) The rest have all become excited followers.

I would love to hear people's stories of having shared this book with friends.

Also, remember that if you donate a copy to your local library you could give a gift that would keep on giving reliably for years to come. I have several friends who work at the public library here. I plan on donating copies to several of the local libraries in my area in hopes that it can reach dozens of new people every year.

Please help and do the same if you can.

I promise that very soon The Electric Universe will be available in almost every library in the Louisville, KY area.

You're welcome. I'm a very poor person on a limited income and budget so you people with bigger wallets should help out. See if we can work a deal with someone to help distribute copies of books. I have friends in the library system and haven't found a single copy of this work in any of them. They don't even sell them in the Borders or Barnes & Noble bookstores around here so getting a copy is very hard if you don't look for it online.

My experience in sharing EU has not been as good as yours.

It seems that the people that i have attempted to share with have been taught how to think (myopically), what to think, and what not to think.

They express their dismissiveness toward me because i do not have their formal education, a title, or professional or social standing.

I wonder how many of those who said they read the book actually made an effort to understand what was written and what the implications of EU theory are.

Just got a copy back from one co-worker who said that it was an amazing read and loved it, handed it off to another co-worker. That makes person #101!
