yeah Right.  Even if it could fly, a whole segment of school-centric
business would be cut out of the loop..  college text books stores,
publishers, the little guys with black wheelie-briefcases that come to
campus periodically with free sample books, the underground market of
stealing books from the library and reselling them for killer profit..  You
can't just wget a wiki, resell it, and get rich, Andrew.

But in the spirit of opensource, it's a nifty idea.  THere already is enough
free info out in the world, why not bundle it up in real text book form and
save some bucks.
