    I just designated it as a gift link -- try again and let me know if that solves the problem.

    Thanks Bev.
    A great example of how much goes into making a product that people likely never give a second thought as to what it took to get into their hands.

    Thanks bev !

    On a side note, I noticed this weekend that a yearly subsccription to NYT is 20usd apparently, and seems to often be interested by their articles that are under a paywall. And even if I am french, i think that it's the first time I really consider paying for a subscription to a website.
    20usd for that much interesting content, I think that I will just give in

    Dang, I thought books grew on trees!
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
