I concur. It is a lot of work to keep the inventory up to date and in
response to Karen's suggestion... it is a lot of work to prepare a book
like we did for the reprint Volume 4. To make it cost effective, you also
have to print alot... which cost AGA a bunch...and there are still a lot
left over.

I would like to carry the book... it is better than the Oriental (IMO), but
Dave says it CANNOT be ordered, so it is a non-issue .... until a source
becomes available.

Singapore is not in Malaysia.... (I know, it is anaother picky comment <g>)

Regarding pricing on Diana's book, I agree with Karen--

In fact, it is my understanding that we WOULD NOT carry a book that is
readily available elsewhere.
