I agree with the other guys, I have been following this story and this is totally what this guy wants. It also really bothers me that now he is being asked to speak at Writer's Conventions and etc.... I feel like he should be black balled from the writing community, not applauded, because basically I feel like his book is bragging about all the lax ways he took while writing.
I am currently traveling around South America, I prefer to use www.vivatravelguides.com when looking for current information about countries down here. All of their information that goes in their books is available online, much easier to carry and cheaper... nice.
