Marissa has been cleaning up authors' names, and evidently whenever she
changes a name, the book is put onto the new list, even though it's not
really new. She's already changed about 2 dozen books, I'd guess.
Yesterday I gave her 3 more pages of suspicious author names, double
columns, so I'm guessing there will be a lot more changed books on the new
list. Sorry for the confusion, but I don't think there's much she can do
about keeping the changed books off the new list.
