I see it's nonfiction, but people may have assumed
from the title that it's Sci fi. I know we have a
number of sciFi fans, but they seem to scan more than
validate. Plus, if a sci fi fan clicked on it to
download and then found it was non fiction about the
environment, he/she may have decided not to validate
it.

You and Kenneth, and I think Grace and Monica? I can't
remember exactly who, but I don't think there are that
many of you who are willing to validate almost
anything, especially in the nonfiction line. BTW,

I see One-Minute Millionaire is gone from the download
list. That's another I was going to do, but I kept
putting it off. It's not in the collection, though we
were told that Gustavo wanted it in, and it's not on
Marissa's list. Does anyone know what happened to it?
I'm still willing to validate it if the only problem
was its arrangment and it wasn't in terrible shape.
