Hi Kellie,
*Great*(sarcasm) hopefully we can talk the BookShare staff into implementing
some type of automated tool in the future that will fix those few
weirdnesses from OpenBook scans. I'm sure that all of my books have them as
I don't do any post OpenBook processing before submission. I'm sure there
are lots of folks that don't even know of possible problems. either.
