Dear Fellow Bananafish Subscribers:
I need your help with a project I'm doing for a User Perspectives class
in an MLS program. I picked the "fiction" perspective to explore, but
need you to answer these 10 questions for my research. Please, oh please
won't you take a few minutes to help me? I'm just a poor befuddled
student. Please answer the questions off the top of your head, and go
with first instincts- otherwise this won't work. Cheers!
