the book has to be returned, but I can always re-request if necessary. (I'll 
give it my usual care.

O.K. I've downloaded it and have it
saved as both a word and rtf file. I'll re-request the book
and will proof it, but I want to finish at least Kind of
Blue and maybe do Beasst int eh Garden first--though I can
work on copyediting first if necessary.

Kind of blueis hell. I've never seen a book so badly
paginated. The can is fine, but the book itself is terribly
arranged, and it's taken me quite a while to figure out how to get the various texts on various pages to read 
consecutively and where to stick photo pages and their text
so phtocopied pages also read conxeccutively. I'm on a roll
now, I think, though.

I wonder if Cindy wants to try to open it
and see if her Mac can handle it better?
