Best Macbeth Ever(*)

http://www.boingboing.net/2008/10/23/librarian-fined-500.html

BoingBoing points to the story of a librarian who got a $500 fine for "ethics violation" after promoting his daughter's book in the newsletter, and by distributing free copies.  (He called it "Best Book Ever", hence the title :))

Just so happens that the book in question is a Manga version of Macbeth.  Hey, I'll take popularity for the bard anyway I can get it.  If people buy copies of the book just for protest, that's still exposure!
