: Dear Michael,
: Sorry for the confusion prompted by my e-mail address (rug_books@silvrmn.com), but I am not a rug book dealer. I am, instead, a rug book collector. I chose the e-mail address to remind those on the book dealers' mailing lists that I subscribe to of my collecting interests. I may be personally responsible for a great many wrongs in the world, but the price of oriental rug books is not one of them.

Dear Jerry:
Ok, so you are not a rug book dealer, but only a collector. If you don't mind, I would still like to perpetuate the myth that you are responsible for the low price of rug books. This is probably only 75% wrong anyway.
Mea culpa, Michael
