Hi, Mike. It's true that if you click on the Download link, that will check
out the book for you, but you can click on the link for the book, then that
will take you to a second page where you can see the comment history and
more about the book. The link to actually download the book is on that
second page, so you're safe to click on the link for the book, anyway, to
check out more about a book without actually downloading it. Take care.

Hi Cindy,
I'd been afraid to just arbitrarily click on the "download" links because
I figured that would make me check out the book.
My scans are
Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives, by Michael Newton
and
A Walden Two Experiment: The First Five Years of Twin Oaks Community by
Kathleen Kinkade
(I have a few other scans on my computer waiting to be uploaded; I'm
planning on getting to them this weekend)
Btw, thanks for sending out the new books that are being added to the
collection.
