Hold the press! My book is wrong!
This past Monday, I announced to my mailing list that I am now taking pre-orders for the new book, Choose To Believe. To help with printing costs, I put together a Pre-Publication Special for anyone ordering before April 30th.

I also offered a special bonus for the first 500 customers - an ebook edition of the new book. So far, after 3 and a half days, we've sold over 460 copies, so the ebook edition is almost 'out of production'.
It took approximately a minute and a half to process each order, as I was creating a new PDF file for each customer, encoded with their email address as the PDF password. I've been pretty much chained to the desk these last 3 days, and only now getting a break.
To say that the new book is a hit is an understatement. Folks are LOVING it!
With one rare exception, of course. I got an email this morning from someone who has taken a look at the ebook sampler (first chapter with the incidental material), and reported to me that my acceptance of the Sai Baba case for miracles discredits me. He goes on to say that after a half hour of browsing YouTube, he was able to conclusively PROVE that Sai Baba is a hoax.
WOW! 30 minutes of YouTube research trumps 25 years of scientific investigation.
Hold the press! My book is wrong!
Geeze!
Well, there will always be someone who simply HAS to prove himself right despite any and all evidence to the contrary. My reply was to thank him for the information and to say that if he could point me in the direction of more credible information (knowing that many videos on YouTube are manipulated), I would be glad to take a look. Who knows, maybe decades of scientific investigation is wrong. It certainly wouldn't be the first time.
Of course, only 1 dissenter out of 500 isn't bad. Maybe my book isn't as controversial as I thought it might be. We'll see.
