4. Yep. It was even on a bookstore site I saw at one point.
(Can't remember which one.)

Didn't see a whole lot on DU, but then I didn't spend much time on DU over the weekend as I was busy trying to get a job out.

7. It was prominent in the NYT, WP, etc. Maybe not in the "chain" papers, or on TV.

The NYT headline was "Norman Mailer: Towering Writer with Ego to Match Is Dead." Or very similar words.
