Default Take your picture with the Bad Astronomy book

Just spreading the word, from the BA Blog: Where (else) has the BA book been?:

Quote:
So, do you own a copy of the book? Take a picture of yourself holding it in some fun location, send it to me, and I’ll post it [at BadAstronomy.com]. But hurry! In a year the second book will be out and I’ll forget all about the first one.

So ban the owners of all the nearby bookstores. I've looked for it, but they don't have it.

Borrow a copy from a library. If it's a famous library have your picture taken right there.

I gave away my copy. I have a picture but to make my apartment sufficiently famous I'd probably have to face a life prison sentence.
