Yes, I know the book. I assumed the original key was a tone (or more) higher, then they had to transpose it for someone new, and the copyist was told "Make us a new one a tone lower." These things are put together so incredibly fast that it's easy for something like that to slip through, especially when the job is not supervised by the original person. > >P.S.

You can "reply to all", which I do in Eudora by holding down the shift key when I reply, then both the list AND the person who sent the message gets a copy. You'll probably read this message twice, but it's more certain if you decide to unsubscribe one day.
