Places to look for lost books

[Eastons <easton@CYBERBACK.COM>]

Unbelievable! The places you guys thought of! Here is quite an exhaustive
list (can there possibly BE another place???) I think/hope this is all of
them.

One LM Netter sent me a copy of a great letter she uses. It really is
wonderful. It is on a computer at school. I will get that (as soon as I can
remember!) and see if she will let me share it with the group.

Forgive any duplications. By the time I get to the end of the list, I have
forgotten what I read at the beginning.
 (17 more days--who's counting!!??!!)

Thanks so much!
