Dear All, Seemingly all the replies one way and another as far as I can see have been off List. Gnrl. support - not for me but seemingly generally - is such that I feel obliged to advise that people support the likes of those who endeavour to make a small independent living - for all our benefit - in our general field of interest. Ok, NMRS certainly do sterling work in producing their excellent vols., but it is definitely unfair in this partic. instance, that they have unfair competition in gnrl. things that are offered by publishers. This is simply not right, and I would like to ask all authors and future publishers that such an unfair situation is not arrived at again. Sorry to all, I feel very strongly about this. It is simply NOT RIGHT. Kind Regards to All, Bernard
