All of Fran's items are on my list as well, with the exception of The Empire's New Clothes and Facing Beauty. There's a bunch more I'd like to have, but I won't bore you by transcribing my Wish List. :-) -- Cathy Raymond ca...@thyrsus.com Beware how you take away hope from another human being. --Oliver Wendell Holmes ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
