Subj: RE: [kl] Klose ???
Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2003 17:30:58 -0500

Lazurus or Lasurus? Don't know which spelling is correct, but it looks like
the Klose book, except blue. I was told that it covers the same things, but
they are not the same. I've never played from it myself, but I was told it
was the Bible, though we all know that Klose is.

I'm going to buy some copies of the Klose book when I see them. Someday when
I am a teacher I want my students to have that book to work with.

Why on earth would they put it out of print!?!?
