Dear Aztlan List members,

Sorry for the gibberish that has been sent regarding
this topic.  I assure you that the emails we
moderators received were clearly legible, which is why
we forwarded them.  I have decided to copy and paste
the original email (based upon the one received by the
moderators) below...  It contains the entire book list
that the sender originally wished to convey.

Please note, it is possible that this is an error
caused by too much background "coding" added to the
text (such as copying and pasting from MS Word
documents or other rich text formats).  A good rule of
thumb, if you want to maintain clear characters and
formatting, is to compose off-line using programs like
"Notepad" or other basic text editors.  These will
leave no extraneous formatting issues when copied into
an email.

-Dave

Happy New Year everyone!
I apologize for the unreadable book list that you all
previously received.  It was not an attempt to test
your
deciphering skills and linguistic abilities, but a
technological mistake.  I am attempting to resend the
book
list.  Thanks to those of you who sent individual
emails to me.  

note: We have many more books in this field.
