Is that the kind of credit you were thinking of? :-) BTW, I don't understand why you would collect books based on the tool that produeced them, rather than the substance that has been produced. It's like only eating cake made with a Bamix. It doesn't make sense (IMHO). Best Regards, Lucian G. - --------------------------------------- I never make predictions.
