Dear Lissi, No doubt for all our technological improvisation and obvious
adroit and masterful uses of our skills to create , what is with out a doubt a
"beautiful machine", we screwed up when we missed the duct tape! Have a great
weekend, Tom

Dear Tom, Pradik and All,
Obviously I'm as obtuse about techno--humor as I am about techno-facts. I'm
not all that handy with tools either, unless knitting needles, spoons, spatulas
and pots and pans count as tools, but from what I've heard, shouldn't you be
able to make anything work with duct tape?
Always with Love,
Lissi

You guys are cruel ! You shouldn't use anything but the very best silk and
rubber bands, that it'll give a little extra bounce to each flip of the pages.

Donna,
the whole process wouldn't be fun otherwise. I was thinking something in
the line of leggo mounting block and a boddy flipping machine suspended by
using kite string. The kite string absolutely would have to be processed with
extra glass shards.

PP: let's make the validation and submission automatic too!
DS: Will this involve suspending Gustavo upside down using kite string
and legos??

Hello all,
The search for the Holy Grail for bookshare volunteers has ended. Here
is a perfect solution. Start the scan, leave, come back, scan done. New
request: let's make the validation and submission automatic too!
