Unfortunately, yes. I will not argue with the moderator as he is just
doing his job. I completely understand his point of view. =)
I hope I can share this comment on the list: If you contact me
off-list, I will point you in the right direction for search terms.
Google is very handy when used properly. (It's more then just typing
"ebooks" and hitting search.) ;)
P.S. Kelly, if I can't say that, just block it and I'll resend without
the last paragraph. =)
