Hi Bob,

It is my humble opinion that you should consider writing a book, get it
published, and sell a boat load.  Like Donald Hamilton's Matt Helm
books, or Ian Fleming's James Bond.

They did it, why not Bob La Londe's Agent Bean??

You will never know if it will work, until you try.

Honestly with all typing you do in the newsgroups your typing skill
could are certainly good enough.  You can't be a "Hunt n' Pecker"!!

What is the worst that could happen??

You got my VOTE!!!
