Have to sign off this list, just too much activity, even with it filtered to
another folder. Drat!
But I'll keep scanning away as I have been.
Good luck to all,
Happy scanning and validating!

Hi Bud,
The site is specifically designed not to show adult content if you
aren't logged in and allowed it in your preferences. So I really recommend
logging in before searching for a book, especially if you are considering
scanning it.
