Congratulations, Rick. I know it gave you pleasure to get it done, and I hope it supplements SS as well. :-)

    Way off topic, but I wanted to report that after several months of
    effort, we managed to convert my childrens
    hardcover book,"The Little Crow That Could Not CAW", into digital
    format.

    It is now available for sale as an Amazon Kindle productfor tablets and
    other handheld, as well as PCs.
    As you know, the Kindle reader program is a free app for all devices
    from Amazon.

    At the risk of boring everone to death, I will mention that the project
    was compounded by the loss of the original art
    by my former publisher. However, with the input from so many of you on
    this list, the problem was solved and quality
    scans were obtained from a pristine print copy.

    The challenge of creating a semi-animated digital version from the
    print original was accomplished with some great help
    from the Kindle team, and a lot of pure old-fashioned good luck.

    If you have someone in the 4-to8 year range, I think they will enjoy
    this tale... and the e-book price is a super bargain.

    Thanks everyone.

    Rick
