Scott, I still haven't heard from you. Anything wrong?

I finished my check of the proof PDF yesterday. :)

And I'm mailing them back on Tuesday. Dick Lupoff wrote a fine introduction.

Philippe, did you get the email I sent to you? Or the package? Haven't gotten a response. I've gotten reports of emails to me being returned to sender.

Both, yes, many thanks. I did reply and I didn't get any error message so far.
Do you have an alternate email address?

No, alas!
Which volume was it, 3 or 4?

Too bad this forum doesn't include a "personal message" feature for members, as they often do. Or, does it? I can't find any.

Well, fellow members, sorry for the personal stuff, I'll keep it as short as possible (no big revelations anyway :-).

So, Scott, the book arrived last week, thanks a lot. It is CAS Collected Fantasies vol. 4, so the one I still miss is vol. 2.
I truly love this series. The scholar part of it manages to be both informative and entertaining, which is certainly what most readers are looking for, and the way texts are edited is exemplary.

Sorry to hear that you are still struggling with the problem you mentioned. I realize how true the say is: when you don't undergo such a thing, you can't really understand what it is like and you tend to think that it is something one can shrug off some way or another.

Silver Key Press is still alive and well. At least the French part of it, as we haven't published anything new in English since DSF's new edition of The Sorcerer Departs. But I have indulged myself into launching a new series in Esperanto, a surprisingly fascinating language I should have started learning and studying much earlier.
A Spanish series should soon follow.

I thought it was volume 3 you were missing.... Oh well, I'll get a copy of vol 2 off on Tuesday (Monday is the U.S. Labor Day holiday), if I have a copy that Ron signed on hand.

What email address are you using for me? (Mine is not a secret.)

No, you sent it back in December 2007. You intended to send it along with volume 2 but it seems you forgot.

Ok then, it's scottconnors01[at]comcast.net
It might just be that you have an antispam filter active directly on your provider's server. I know I have both: the one on my provider's server, which I configure online (I don't even hear of the messages it erases), and my own filters which I configure in the preference panel of my mailing program (this spam I can check in my "junk mail" folder).

I've heard from another friend in France that his emails were being bounced also. I'll check with my ISP to see what I can do to remedy this problem.

It might be that the domain free.fr being widely used, is automatically considered a potential source of spam, as most popular domains are, one day or another. Par la barbe d'un bouc vert !

Considering the nature of this board, shouldn't you be swearing by the thousand young of the black goat, and not the beard of a green one?

I've also had some trouble e-mailing Scott, but usually I've been able to solve it by rephrasing the e-mail until it no longer bounces (frustrating and tedious, but it works with shorter messages). (That's why my comments on the appended texts became briefer and briefer over time, Scott.)
