I have nothing different to offer. Can I make it take a pick from my bookshelves for each of the books I need to replace?

Well, I am not keen on the idea but as there is no other good solution, I hope at least this can get some trading going. :shrug: Not just our box, but overall things have quiet down a lot.

I have been completely forgetting to log in on this site for ages. I've got all but one of the owed books I had out the door this month. I'm at work, but will try to remember to check on this in the next couple of days. It's true, life has gotten in the way of book swapping!

It's better to e-mail than PM. Since I never remember to log in, I don't see the PMs until I remember!
