To round out the conversation, I'd like to follow up on a suggestion from a few days ago, which is to send Robbie some cash when we get a copy--as if it had been republished. I can understand him not wanting his address plastered to the list (I wouldn't want it). Would you be willing to serve as a conduit for checks to him if community members wanted to send something? - -Al At 10:32 PM 9/30/2008, Shelly Sholley wrote: >Ok, so Sir Schaef spoke thus: > >Thanks for looking out for me.
