It's SO nice to know that legal publishers are still plying law
librarians with `mad junket trips & logo-wear ;-) `While West hasn't
filled a convention hall with sand in quite some time, it's nice to

What a shame - all this *after I leave law for Public Librarianship!? ;-)
[even self-publishers don't send such eclectic shipments!]
