WMMMTI: What story?
Patterner: Oops. That was DOM. Sorry. :)
OnlineHost: JANDAP has left the room.
Patterner: WM, I have an HP palmtop, and I d/l books from this library all
the time,..

doctor or something.
WMMMTI: Just wondering...I was impressed
DOMGODIII: See already your asking me things I don't know!!
Patterner: There's *thousands* of books that are public domain now.
Patterner: DOM, where did you get the story?
Galtharius: Nothing beat actually hold a book though

SeaToOcean: Agreed Galth!
WMMMTI: Really pretty cool. Technology is great.

OMNIPortal: Wanna bet? ;)
OnlineHost: CaptChunck has left the room.

Patterner: That's true, Gal.
Weyden: One of my textbooks was downloadable off the WWW I loved not having
to pay a lot to get it in hardback
WMMMTI: Sand in the disk drive causes major problems though
OMNI Gizmo: Well, Portal, I wouldn't take *my* computer to the beach. It
might get wet! ;{>
Patterner: You'd have to be careful, of course.
DOMGODIII: I got the Dan Simmons story
