Where are they all going? Roslin Chapel (the main British location
in the book/film) gets a few hundred visitors a day, but from listening
to them I get the impression they're mostly from England. How many
bums on seats is a "major impact"?
A local college tried to cash in on the craze by offering a course
on matters related to the book, taught by an assortment of certified
fruitcakes from both sides of the pond.

Last thing I heard, they had a grand total of 2 advance bookings.
