A while back somebody pointed to these books 
http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=1269821946/ref=sr_pg_1?ie=UTF8&keywords=Babylon%205%20surhone&bbn=283155&rh=i%3Astripbooks%2Cn%3A283155%2Cn%3A%211000%2Ck%3ABabylon%205%20surhone&page=1

or   http://tinyurl.com/yhaclcz

and I pointed out the oxymoron of them claiming High quality Wikipedia
articles and laughed  them off.  Now Ive looked a little further.  One of the
editors of Alphascript-publishing.com links to 33,918 items on Amazon and
another with Betascript-publishing.com (hmmm...a pattern emerges) links to
18,278 items on Amazon.  Basically, these people seem to be doing searches on
Wikis and throwing them together as books (80-110 pages for the most part) for
$40-$60 each.  In other words, theyre leeches.  They create nothing of their
own and profit from the labor of others.

Yeah, well, everybodys got the right to make a buck, right?  Except...

Now Amazon is sending emails to people whove bought other B5 items on their
site to promote these books.  Since the books are in stock and shipped from
Amazon, I think its likely that these books are actually being produced by
Amazons POD section.

I've posted negative reviews on several and intend to finish up after posting
this note.  I don't know if it'll do any good but I invite anybody else so
inclined to post their own negative reviews along with me.
