Keep posting, Jamie.  Everybody else does, and sometimes not even on topic.  It 
is at least something concerning the production of books, and it's my 
understanding that's supposed to be what this list is all about.  Anyone who 
doesn't want to read has a delete key on the computer.

  Monica and list, I apologize. It appears I am the culprit of posting too much 
to the list, even for on topic messages like questions about the author or 
exact title of a book.

  I am completely to blame because I am eager to help grow the collection and 
to make the wishes for books of others come true. I am one of the few 
volunteers who will spend my own limited free time hunting down books that are 
hard to find or even not so hard to find to make available to Bookshare members.

  I have been told that in the future if I have questions about books I should 
email the person doing the wishing privately and I will do so. If that means 
that another person also obtains and scans the same book that I am getting to 
scan, then we will be doing duplicate work because the list will not know I am 
working on the book. But that's the way it has to be, I guess. Given that the 
wishlist grows by leaps and bounds all of the time, I'm guessing it might not 
be a problem since there don't appear to be too many others who are willing to 
hunt down wishes and get them in the collection.

  So again, my apologies. I didn't realize that other people's free time to 
read and scan and proof was more valuable than my own free time.

  In the future if you have wishes for books please email me privately at 
mirxtech@xxxxxxxxx so we don't bother the list with extraneous conversation.
