Re: [ARSCLIST] stop the presses
Hello Dick,
Thank you for the heads up on Tony's book. I did some searching online
and the best price I found was for $66.50 at Oxford University Press:
http://www.oup.com/us/brochure/0195139895/?view=usa
Also, be on the lookout for the package we sent you. It should arrive
today or tomorrow at the latest.
Best wishes,
Lance
