Re: Genesis Update



Oh boy. If I had spent that much money on a book I most certainly would use gloves. Well I work in a museum and have this branded in my brain. Conservation techniques and all. NEVER handle paper with bare hand if it's meant to be kept for a long time.

I must say my inner museologist and the painter in me*, was cringing a bit when I watched that video Rick posted. I would never handle this book like that (putting it on it's spine or holding in one handed etc. But then you paid for it you handle it as you wish.

* I always handle artwork with utmost respect too, be it mine or anyone else's, be it daVinci or next door's neighbour's kid.

WHAT?!?! Yopu had to pay the Fed Ex guy extra on top of what you already paid?!?!

I guess, that's almost as good as having your wife finding it sitting outside the door, and you were home the whole day, and never did a doorbell ring or did the sound of knuckles knocking on wood make their way to my ears. I was gonna write to Genesis about that but as you know had other things on my mind soon after.

And TangoMan...seriously ...you're going to get gloves?! red velvet ones? gloves? seriously ?I mean, I'm going to take extra care with my book and not be eating blood red borscht and sucking down shots of Medivka with it in hand, but gloves ?!
