Book Club Tip

Monday, June 25, 2007; Page C12

Everyone in your book club can think of what they would wish for if, like Jane, they found a magic coin. The really hard part is to word your wish so that you get exactly what you want. Other club members can suggest possible unwanted outcomes for each wish. For example, if you wanted a million dollars, how would you ask for it so that the tricky coin didn't fool you?
