I just read in Publishers Weekly that new Borders CEO Ron Marshall will get $1 million base salary plus signing bonus for the first of his three year contract. Then, for the next two years he only gets $750,000. Gee, I'm definitely on the wrong end of publishing.

Please note that I didn't suggest that they publish YBFH :)

Amazon has started (or will be) charging sales tax, at least in NYS.
