    Thanks for the warning--I'll listen to you next time!

    Didn't leave the hotel except for the wedding. I didn't get to go to NYC. My ankle is fractured and I'm in a cast up to my knee for two more weeks! Can't drive. But I've been reading a lot! The SVH books are from when I was a kid, but I loved them!

    Aunt Pat, there is a book called "Special Topics in Calamity Physice" not sure of authori off top of my head but it's a fiction book and it is one of the most original books I've read in a very long time. I think you would enjoy it!

    Hey...I saw the question you asked Nic, if you click on the right of the 'I have read' thingie on the book you want to move, it will show other options. Hope this helps.
