->Therefore, I'll need to have an offline meeting with the 
->webmaster to update our site with a library and review 
->section.  The purpose of that space would be to let our 
->members submit reviews of books that are of interest to the 
->rest of us. These can be your own books or books from our 
->library, that have
->(hopefully) been sent to us by publishers to review.  There 
->is a remote possibility of getting some authors (other than 
->Wes <grin>) to present at meetings.
