I like this & Rita's Halloween card idea. I'd be willing to participate 
(is Rita volunteering to be the coordinator?), but I have a small (read 
under 4 ft tall) problem <g>.

I've got a young wizard who complains that he "never" gets any mail 
(and he rarely does as most people he knows don't write). I don't think 
I could live with him if I suddenly got 75 cards. <g> Any chance we 
could do a splinter list so those say 10 and under could send cards/
postcards to each other? He hasn't actually "read" the books, but he's 
listened to the Jim Dale tapes (too often, I think - the drivers in the 
family got a little weary of getting caught in traffic and then hearing 
a directive from the back seat to "make it move", lol).

I think I'd do it if I knew someone was expecting it. <G> I don't 
really send cards (I've gotten worse at correspondence since the advent 
of email.), but no one really sends me any either. It's not that I'm 
not interested ... just that I'm a little slow to respond.

Magically yours,
