... Belay that--I realized it would be much better to do it in the Ruby script, since it's Delicious-specific, and also easier. I don't know if this is...
... OK, I see what's going on--Location is an attribute of each copy rather than the main book entry. I kludged this sufficiently for my needs by changing...
