If I can use the same contract to buy very large valves or coat large pieces of equipment or construct a power station (well 2 out of 3 in my case) I don't see why the publishing industry can't do the same thing.Christina Aurethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05717036758785519912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-64728133137639348472012-11-08T10:15:58.396-05:002012-11-08T10:15:58.396-05:00Janet,

I read this, and my insides go all funny because to me about forty percent of it sounds like the mystical mutterings of a deeply empowerfulled shaman with insight into the hidden cryptic workings of the arcane knowings, and I think: this entoothed Great White Chomper stands between me and the abyss, and I am humbled.
