Is there any validation you can do other than checking the number of digits,
and the check digit? Checking the check digit is pretty simple... beyond
that... I don't think there's really any way to tell if the ISBN has _actually_
been assigned or not, or even if the prefix has been actually ass
Quoting Jonathan Rochkind :

Hi all.
