Thanks, John, for the interest in my laxative video! Alas, I made the video about 14 years ago and it is on VCR tape, so it isn't compatible to the Internet. Technology marches fast, doesn't it? 14 years ago I didn't even own a computer, and now I'm blogging!
Hi John,
I bought your book and am proudly stocking it in my home library. Send any and all students my way to check it out. Diane
John, I have heard about the banning of Box Out. Good grief!! Where is the tolerance in this country?
Diane,
Thank you for that. That is exactly what we need.
