Hi, Cindy. Maybe Gustavo could kick it back so it can be revalidated? It
would be a thought, anyway, since it was an honest mistake and the book is
indeed complete. Take care.

Oh, dear. This is why, Elizabeth, I wish people would
release books rather than reject, or would feel free
to ask me to check, either online or if I can't find
the info, to get the book.
There are two books with the title, Urban Shaman. The
first, by C.E. Murphy, published in 2005, I suspect is
the one you rejected, Cheryl, because the other,
published in 1990 and written by Serge King, has a
table of contents.
The C. E. Murphy book's Chapter One does begin on page
seven (an un-numbered page 7); the time is Tues., Jan.
4, 1:45 a.m., and the narrator is complaining about
taking a red-eye flight.
The other book's Chapter One has a title and begins on
page 13 (again un-numbered, but the next page is page
14).
I hope whoever scanned the book originally is on the
list and will resubmit it--or that someone else will
scan and submit it. Also, I'll be interested to know
if someone re-scans The Rich are with us Always. I'll
keep looking for it on the download list. (smile)
Elizabeth, we'll miss your validating abilities. My
personal opinion, which is really irrelevant since I'm
not a bookshare member, is that your validating skills
are mor valuable than scanning, since there seem to be
so many scanners and so few excellent validators, but
I canunderstand your wanting to expand your experience
(smile).
