Reading this post reminds me of my previous room mate!
He always kept talking about this. I will forward this page to him.

Fairly certain he will have a good read. Thank you for sharing!

But Forest Books is facing a much bigger dilemma with the MHDC (Mission Housing Development Corporation). Mr. Wood’s got a petition on the door, but it doesn’t look like it’s growing that well. Maybe an online petition? Promoted by Mission Mission or Uptown Almanac, maybe even Haighteration or some shit, I don’t know. Some may argue, but I think they have a pretty strong voice and can get shit like this done. I can’t figure out how to make one, can someone get on this? change.org ipetitions.com

It may not be as cool as Adobe or have the same claim to it’s missionosity, but it’s a better book store for actual books. Hate to see it go.

We need interested parties to step up and help us in this future vision.

The kindle may be rightly threatening the used book business, but that’s the whole point of this transformation: to find a sustainable way to support this kind of public space in the Mission when the old business models won’t cut it anymore.

Every book I’ve ever needed for an English class I’ve been able to find at Adobe for around $3. And I have never met such a warm, kind-hearted person as Andrew McKinley. Adobe is a true SF gem.
