>Hi Folks, I never pay attention to book requests because I'm a proofer, not a

>Not only that, you can't read the dumb books except on your computer. I'd
>really really love Bookshare to do this book! I don't suppose its publisher
>is one we have in our list of donors? Don't know who publishes Stabenow
>books, but I could find out if necessary.

>Would somebody please forward this to the right place. Thanks.
