Very Lucky to have Mr.Bergsten here!!! The Ranchers should read this...

This post may not be eligible for the book promotion, but I cannot stand mentioning this here...
We, the Ranchers, are very lucky to have Mr.Bergsten here... One of the reasons is here.

For $199.00, you get to pick my brain through email for one month. Considering all the hours you save, it's a real bargain. Instead of spending time searching for answers on mailing lists and in online forums, you get the correct answer directly from me. Having used and participated in the specification of the Java web tier technologies for many years, I know not just what's in the specifications but also how to use these technologies effectively.

In this book promotion, we can ask any questions we want to know to Mr.Bergsten without needing to pay $199.00... It is very thankful that JavaRanch can arrange this kind of appointment so that we, the Ranchers, have opportunity to talk with Mr.Bergsten...
Here in this thread, some people complained about the selection of winners... Don't even think about the book... The book promotion is like we got the author, sitting in front of us, we got opportunity to talk with him and it's far worthful than the book... The book is just a bonus...
At least we save $199.00 in this book promotion to talk with Mr.Bergsten directly... Thanks a lot to Mr.Bergsten for being here and answering almost every questions and thanks a lot to the Ranch as well...

You couldn't have said it better!! Sure, I'd love to win the book, but getting the opportunity to pick the author's brain (and have those brain pickings available for future reference) is invaluable.
