[[hampton is my address not where published
the first 'printer' in Elizabethton botched the job so badly including the
cover color that i took it elsewhere; he even started by printing on typing
paper which i caught. many problems.
the second 'printer' botched in so many ways that he volunteered to reprint.
also a disaster. pages upside down and out of place. rusting 'stainless steel'
staples, even. when the magenta cover ran out he wouldn't order anymore so
i didn't get some 100-200 copies bound and he soon went out of business and
i guess threw out those.
i only sent out a few copies of the warm-colored book and consider it a non-book;
the magenta cover is the 'corrected' version. tho just another sad experience
with so many problems to it. it's after this i got a copier. you may remember
all the trouble/sadness of that experience, you and werner were so very kind
to me]]
