Hello Mary, and all. Yes, actually the publisher is me so I make that final decision. All Rootswebbers & active members & contributors get the $23 price. This is the book that was $18 before it was published. I prefer to invoice you, since it's easier to keep track of, but will certainly accept a check. Also, it's easier to keep track of the Spindle money if you make it directly out to me. I will try harder to cash these things in a prompter manner. I'm doing the next newsletter now & hope to get that out in a couple weeks (just before Xmas, surely :)...) If there's any trustworthy retired folks out there who don't live too far from CA, won't you consider volunteering to be "Membership Chairman" and keep track of the money and subs? I have been getting into trouble because I forget things, and so people could send you checks, etc., and you could send me what they want. The trouble is, we're not an official association (unless Wallace K. had set that up years ago, I don't know) so I don't know how to go about doing it differently. Comments, suggestions? Do you all think we should set up an association? Thanks for your patience! Oh, and by the way, think twice about hitting the return button on this list, as some things that should go directly to me are being distributed to folks who don't really care about it (and then maybe it reminds folks to bug me, so maybe that's good). Anyway, you have to think about it. Anyone know of a good library in GERMANY, Poland, other Europe, CANADA, Australia, etc. that would reach folks in those countries? I could send a few books to them, too. Janet Reinhold, PO Box 4001, Covina CA 91723-0401
