I love LEGO. I still have all my LEGOs from my childhood. The pieces were a lot more basic back in those days, though. :)

Anybody can be published today. And it's twice as easy if you're doing it to consolidate a large brand.

Diasgree. Anyone can self-publish, or use a vanity press. This guy was "legitimatly" published. He sold an idea for a book, rather than pay for getting it printed in a limited run.

Correct. As the author of this article (who signs in when he comments, btw)..........No Starch Press contacted Jack directly, NOT a vanity press.....I believe that was in the article, by-the-by. Bddpaux (talk) 18:59, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
