Here in the Village of Natchitoches, we are not large enough for a Borders. We have a book department at Walmart, and until Saturday The Book Merchant. No More The Book Merchant was a fixture on our main tourist street. It was a place you could thumb through bestsellers, interesting magazines, sit on a sofa and pet a cat, meet a real author or poet, well, it was a real bookstore. Try that at Amazon. Oh, by the way John, the sales taxes? They went to help pay for the streets, and schools and our public library and the firemen and other stuff. I'd rather pay the taxes and have my bookstore. -- Regards, Sonny http://sonc.com/look/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
