The internet is neat-o

Mike reports:

Chestnuts from the Anne Frank tree (the one she writes about in her Diary of a Young Girl) are being auctioned off on eBay this week. Apparently the actual tree is diseased and in danger of being taken down before it falls down, so the winner could theoretically be planting a strange little form of literary history. To his credit, the auctioneer (who lives near the tree) is donating 15% of the proceeds to ECPAT.
