Dear Karen,

I am looking forward to being part of this discussion.  I need help in registering, since nothing has asked for my address or info beyond password, etcetera.  I belong to two wonderful bookgroups that meet in members'  homes.  We are always looking for new books.  I would love to be able to suggest some as they are being published.

Thanks,

Lussie

Hello, it is mwinasu and I think I am in.  It is cold and dark here today.  We are loosing about 5 minutes a day of daylight until Dec.22.  I am so glad we have so many festivals this time of year.  It gives me reasons to be happy at a time when it feels that winter will never leave.
