I'll decline the twenty copies of "What is Lojban", since I have only 
met one person here who was even vaguely interested, he's a die-hard 
Esperantist and he's going to Saudi Arabia soon anyway.  One thing I can 
recommend, though, is that if and when it shows up on amazon.com, 
someone write a review of it (not me - I've already done that for TCLL). 
Nothing too gushy -  write as a linguist or conlang hobbyist. If anyone 
here's still a member of the auxlang list, a post there would be in 
order too (I unsubscribed in despair some years, but lojbab may still be 
subscribed).
