lori...you are the best hostess!! always trying to make life easier for us swappers!!! i would like to point out that (and i know i do it sometimes) that it may be hard for a person to say "i would like this, or that" coz they may feel greedy....i want it to be very easy and fun for my sp to get my package ready....so i just say "whatever you pick is fine" come to realize that this attitude makes it much harder for my sp to get my package ready!! i think if we all just really get specific and write a lot about us, and the things we need, want, wish for, etc, it makes it easier.....and after all that is said, i like the idea of more specific questions, like reading, what kind of books, old mags, what level of sewer are you etc.....all good things to make it easier for everyone...!! gina
