No, I need to change the forum search box so that it'll search both the forum and the main page. I've been meaning to do that. Just never got around to it.

THANK YOU for closing the Koran thread, Alex.

How do I get you cash for your first book? (Not fussy on the cover, just gotta be in English.)

I would much rather get it from you than amazon or a bookstore...

Rod, just paypal me $15 and I'll put one in the mail. That's the easiest way.

If you don't do paypal, email me your address and I'll email you mine. Then you can send me a check... Though you're in Canada, aren't you. The currency issue could make things difficult.

So paypal is definitely easiest.
