    Maybe the moderator was responding to a question of whether or not King minds if people sell the items he means as gifts. But I still don't see any evidence or mention that King was "so upset that he...

    As I understand it the guests were not only book people (writers, publishers, agents,etc.) but also from the entertainment sector as well as others. Lots of the guests may have had no idea what it...
