Ever hear of the Internet?

The owner of a used bookstore has started burning books because he can't give them away. I realize that the article mentions something on the order of 20,000 books, but I bet that he could get a volunteer to post a list on the Internet, and people would pay a little bit of shipping and handling to grab up an armload of books.

Anything's better than burning them. Isn't it?

Update: Ah... a buck? I smell publicity stunt.
