I'm guessing he wants something that looks professionally labeled and maybe shrink-wrapped. What do you think? I could actually have some DVD's professionally printed up (it cost < $5/per) and shrink wrapped with printouts of the tutorial, and "sell" the combination for $19.99/each... but that would lead me down a road I really don't want to go down. -- William > > > > On Dec 9, 2007 8:16 PM, William Stein <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Thoughts? > > > > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > > From: personal info deleted > > Date: Dec 9, 2007 4:20 PM > > Subject: SAGE > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > Dr. Stein: > > > > I find information on SAGE almost "thrilling," and want to get SAGE > > introduced here at Walden University.
