That remind me; my renew didn't show up. I'd better go check and see if I can
renew now.
Als, whatever engineering has done to help Carrie is wonderful (Or maybe it's
that Carrie is wonderful!. My proofed books are getting into the collection
almost the same time I check them in.

>WOW! I just renewed a book, at 2 a.m, that
before the improvements would have taken about 5 minutes at best at this time
of
night to renew (usually more like ten minutes). It took less than a minute
total. Then I uploaded a book that had been proofread. That took
less than two minutes, including the time to upload the book using dial-up!
Before the improvements it was taking at least 15 minutes to half an hour, at
this time of night, if it worked at all.
