Hi Gustavo,

<smile>  To save you from those dreadful alternatives I just downloaded two
books for validation.  Now, do I detect just a wee bit of gloating in our
message?  <lol>  What a fun site manager you are!!!!

Regards,

Sue S.

people...please validate me


gentlepeople,



i have no books to approve! while it's cool to think: "great! the
Bookshare.org book approval queue is [practically] empty.now it's
major-slacking-off-time for me".unfortunately, that just means i'd have more
time to do other stuff on my to-do list.



approving books to go live on the website is without a doubt the coolest
part of my daily routine. if i have no books, then i have to move down the
list of daily tasks which aren't nearly as fun: improve my fussball game, or
listen to Jim complain about glaring holes in the movie adaptation of The
Lord of the Rings, or watch Peter via his webcam as he practices his
interpretive dance moves. none of these prospects are as fun as approving
more books and watching the live books number increase daily. we're at
22,652 as of the time i write this email.



Bookshare.org cannot hit the 25,000 live books mark, which you all think is
do-able (and i do as well) by the end of the year without your continuous
and always appreciated submission and validation efforts.



please, give me something fun to do. do some quality validation, otherwise i
'll have to learn to speak Klingon, get that correspondence-school AA degree
in gun-repair or schedule a dental-cleaning appointment.



many thanks,



gustavo
