I just posted a WL book and got the following RC:
"I will only accept books that were once read by George Clooney while he was wearing latex gloves to prevent damage. I would prefer that they be hermetically sealed and hand-delivered in an armored car protected by Special Forces and ninjas. (Just kidding!)" 
I accepted it.  Now, I just need to confirm with the ninjas when they're available to deliver it.  I'm also thinking up ways to keep George Clooney occupied since he finished reading the book!!!

I'd have to decline - my hermetically-sealing machine is in the shop.

Well, Gail, the member used the word "prefer", so you might be ok!

I wonder if she gets declines from the folks who automatically reject any RC without reading it?

Sorry but I'd have asked for Clooney to personally deliver the book.

Is D.C. available if George Clooney personally delivers the books?
