I need to get copies of the past 5 months Bloom County comic strips. The idea of going down to the library and duplicating them at $0.15 each is only for the rich. I am sure that YOU have a much better solution. Could you help me? Thanks, gab Disclaimer: All spelling errors are the computers, not mine!

Could you help me? Duplicate them for $0.05 each. (Get a copy card or something and resell what's left when you're done. Or check out all those newspapers and go to a copy center.) That's about $7.50 total. Not much more than the book will end up costing anyway. Sounds like a time-consuming pain, but not very expensive. Actually, there is a comic book that publishes nothing but the better newspaper comics. I do not know if they regularly carry Bloom County. Inquire at your local comic book store. Perhaps calling your local newspaper can be of help. But that might incur actual royalty charges, size unknown. <gasp!> (You mean Berke Breathed gets *paid* for doing us this favor?) ucbvax!brahms!weemba Matthew P Wiener/UCB Math Dept/Berkeley CA 94720
