Multiple posting of the same post resulted and many of the duplicates
were removed by the elves.

Carol responds:
I don't think it had anything to do with the book covers since it
happened on other sites as well--just an unfortunate coincidence.
Nevertheless, the problems were at their worst yesterday. One of my
posts appeared eight times. I deleted some of them myself, but then
the List Elves requested that we let them do the deleting for fear
that the original posts would be deleted, too.

May I suggest reading the posts for the last week or so from the site
rather than from your digest, which is probably utterly garbled? 

If you find that you prefer it that way, you can always edit your
preferences to Special Notices Only. 

Carol, hoping that no one minds well-intentioned but unsolicited advice!
