There is a possibility that, if we can identifiy trustworthy people in some of the countries from which our orders are received, we can ship several books tot hat person who can remail them at lower local mail rates. If anyone is willing to serve such a role, please contact me. If we can do this, the charges for shipping and handling will be reduced accordingly and we will either credit your balance with LLG or charge your credit card a reduced amount at the time of shipping. (Remailing individuals will of course be reimbvursed for their postage costs in some mutually agreeable way.) The most likely countries for this benefit will be the UK and Australia, since each country has several active Lojbanists there. lojbab
