Maybe that was it. I couldn't understand why it was so hard to get them
to take my money by credit card, by Euro-check, anything! I wonder if
there are enough Italian Renn types in the local area with money (the
with money is the real hard part at the moment) to let us get up a
larger order. Otherwise it's talk sweet to Ian, and let everyone who
has to buy in onsies and twosies that David Brown has it.
Besides, I want Ian to be able to buy David Brown. Then wheedle him
into getting me an unsold copy of the Huge set on Elizabeth put out by
the University of Warwick based on the three enormous volumes put
together by J.D. Nichols from original documents still extant in the
1780's! I knew when they took this project on it was going to be bad,
in fact so bad that no individual would be able to afford it (why
couldn't they have done it on CD (because the original is 3,000 pages
and ... Sigh) but $1,000.00 is just not going to happen. Not just the
original information, but scholarly glosses on each item.
Whine!!!!
