Re: Magazine sales (fwd)

[Neil Frank <nfrank@mindspring.com>]

I can store a xerox size box (or 2) for Diana. I did this with TAGs and
when she needed them, I usually brought them over to her house. 1000 would
be alot for you to store. If Dave only sent us 1800-2000 copies, do you
know if he has plans to sell the rest?

Is the "lack of convergence among" the SC or with Dave (or both :-)  When
convenient, you might briefly list the various positions to see if the SC
would be willing to modify their current position.
