The King of the C-SPAN Store

Dateline: above the garage in Portsmouth RI, 29 December 2004

Got this email this morning when I woke up:



Mr. Barnett,


After reading your book (twice), and since religiously following your blog, I decided to view your CSPAN show last week. Well, being both bandwidth and Cable-challenged (I'm in the Gap of information technology, I swear ;) ), I sked a friend to tape it for me. Of course, Murphy's Law, he forgot, so I set off this AM to buy the DVD from CSpan. When I went to Google to find the URL for CSpan's store, I discovered something. . ..


Thought you might be interested to see what you get if you type in the phrase. . . cspan store . . .into Google.


Look at the first result. Remember, Google ranks based largely on popularity. What's it feel like to be king of the world???? Ride the wave!


- John, from Connecticut, who still wants to know if you're speaking near me and who's citing you in his essay to the USNI
