Thanks for the info, Carrie. I'm glad you validate
them and that you might scan and validate ones that
are already in the collection if you haven't done
them. I think they should have your name as submitter,
though. What concerned me a little was that the
submitter was NY Times,, according to Grace, and if
they just submitted it and it was automatically
accepted, who knows what it would be like. If you scan
and submit it, though, we know it will be Excellent.
