I just noticed that Stones Into Schools has just been added to the collection. "I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their own desires." - Susan B. Anthony

okay. I will try and get started on it, MIke.

And I believe I downloaded 3 cups of tea from bookshare some time back. so unless it was pulled it already is in the bookshare collection. It is an amazing story. and the project brings a lot of hope to a very tough ongoing situation.

Hi Rick, I would be glad to proof Stones in to Schools. The Author's first book, THREE CUPS OF TEA, was on the same subject and it was awsome. By the way, you might also want to scan THREE CUPS OF TEA, I read it on tape through NLS but it really should be in the bookshare collection too. Let me know if you scan Stones in to Schools and I will be glad to do the proofing.

 Hi there.
MIke, thanks for remembering me mentioning about intentions to scan the book STONES INTO SCHOOLS by Greg Mortenson. I do have the book, and was going to do it. But have not yet been able to get started.

 Do you think I might ought just wait and let Bookshare do it?

I would like to get started. But I have to do X, Y, and Z, before I can start. Sometimes my alphabet soup and To Do list keeps me from being so very realistic.


 But...
 Are you pretty interested in proofing it?
If so, and if it has not yet been started by someone, I will try and hop on the boxcar or Santa's sleight, and get it done.
 I have an autographed hardcover in the next room.

 U Yust say de woid.

 AS Groucho used to say on his tv show all those years ago.

 Thanks.
 Rik

Hi Carrie, I think Rick James mentioned a couple of days ago that he was going to scan STONES IN TO SCHOOLS . You might want to check with him.
