- wordy1 writes "This Tampa Tribune story reports the nuisances that both local Tampa and nationwide booksellers have to contend with during the political season. With several political bestsellers on the market, customers not only complain about having too many or too little books that represent their political persuasion; but they've also been known to hide books, turn their back covers forward, and leave notes near books that espouse views with which they don't agree. While some booksellers admit to displaying/carrying books that support a certain political slant, others try to remain neutral. One of Tampa's independent bookstores, Inkwood Books, while some argue they offer more liberal-leaning reads, has aimed to bridge the partisan gap by running an Open Mind Sale, where if customers buy a book that leans Democratic or Republican, they get half off a book that slants the other way. |

It would also be remarkable because, contrary to what Kerry and President Bush tell you, few differences exist between the two White House hopefuls on nearly any topic imaginable."" |

- Thanks. Excellent article. Quote: "The better you understand the strengths and weaknesses of visual perception, the better equipped you'll be to make use of your readers' abilities to detect structure and patterns in data when it's visually displayed."
