Thank you. Im not..not..not blaming Treesaver in the slightest. He has
been a godsend to both me and the authors, as I tend to purchase those
same books after Ive read them the first time.
I was simply commenting, after a long long period of time, I was
shocked to find those books unreadable. I have ALL of them in printed
editions, but the ability to read them on an electronic device
..Kindle etc etc...would be a marvelous thing. I travel a lot for my
work..and have too much sitting time..so reading is what I do. Keeps
me out of the bars...(Grin)
