Actually, Evan, thank you for clearing that up. I didn't realize that. I thought he meant that NLS wasn't using those narrators any more. I just smiled to try to soften what did seem cruel. I wonder why, then, they don't still use those voices on the recordings, since they were good. Why change? DO they re-record books with different voices? That seems a waste of time an energy.
