All email addressed to my benetech addresses (carriek@xxxxxxxxxxxx and 
carrie.k@xxxxxxxxxxxx) gets forwarded to my Yahoo address (ckarnos@xxxxxxxxx), 
so I will get messages wherever I happen to be. This is left over from my days 
as a volunteer, but I like having all my email in one place, rather than 
hopping from website to website to find the messages.

This really is ixciting, Carrie.  So if we 
want you to kick a book back, we email you offlist, of course?  Do we use 
your yahoo address for this, or do you have a benetech address and woould like 
for us to use that?  
 
Thanks,
 
Sue S.

Mayrie, you're right on both counts. We keep both the original and the 
validator's copy.  Gold star for you!

Hi Sue,

        What a good question.  My bet is that they have both 
somewhere.  Just a guess.  And I'll bet Carrie knows!

Peace,
Mayrie
