After my last note I checked eBay and discovered that some guy is
selling 9th editions on DVD (using Adobe) for $9.99 plus $4.00
shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?

I don't have anything on CD. I have four Britannicas at home, one
in my office, and I suppose if the severity of my mania were being

college library when accreditors were coming and we didn't have
enough volumes to pass muster.
