Review title: Soviet Censored Product review: unfortunately Soviet approved, but lacks the courage to ask why he was there, not as much detail as Gulag Archipelago (best book on subject) but written of experiences earlier in the 1930's. Author seems to have taken the soft route in jobs (camp medical orderly etc) rather than the default way.According to this book the male criminal element (opposed to s.58) are all homosexuals, and all females in camps are prostitutes, but married to there gay criminal companions. Make of this what you will.Emphasises camp life only, no comments as to the validity of the state in its actions, or actions of Lenin, or Stalin. Or in fulling 5 year plans. A biassed account

Review title: HORRIBLE GAME Product review: This game is horrible. There is no time to gather all the evidence and you aren't allowed to go places and research leads that you think might be important. After going to every place possible and collecting every piece of evidence possible, it still won't allow you to win the trial. Don't buy this game, it's a waste of money and only has one case that must be played over and over again.

Product review: This is a wonderful ABC. David Kirk's illustrations are vivid and consume the whole page with color. His text is poetic (eg, termites tunnel underneath very vivid violets). I have only two small criticisms:1. The alphabet letters are highly stylized. Very young children may have difficulty recognizing them because of the extra curlicues and whatnot.2. My copy of this book had two W and X pages, but no Y and Z page. Obviously I'd like my children to learn the last two letters of the alphabet as well as the first 24.Because of David Kirk's beautiful style, however, I still read this to my children several times a day. They love Miss Spider and the world of tiny bugs she inhabits.

Review title: terrible customer service Product review: I purchased two of these from Amazon in 2009, and within six months both of them stopped working (humidity sensor died). They were still under warranty and I sent both of them back to Honeywell, along with a $20 check to cover return S&H. I received a new humidifier within a few months, but no word about the second one (even though my check had been cashed), and I've since given up hope on ever seeing it. Very disappointed in both the reliability of these things as well as the follow-up customer service. Shame on you, Honeywell!
