You nailed it, Jim. Certainly, I...er...my friend...would have been happy to
pay for the 22 Uncollected Stories, but they simply cannot be found in any
authorized, copywritten format, outside of the 22 periodicals they ran in
about a half century ago.

I also thank you for putting the (a)political aspect of this into
perspective. I should keep my past connection to the "Bush Empire" to
myself, as it consistently colors my interactions with people in ways that I
don't entirely understand.
