Good for you, Ed.  It is a wonderful experience, indeed.   All should remember too, the truly GIANT collection - said to be second only to LDS at Salt Lake City - to be found at the "Allen County Library" in Ft. Wayne, IN.  It is VERY researcher-friendly, and the very knowledgeable folks there will assist hour after hour.  Paul

  Dear Friends:
      Good day! Time to vent!
  Just returned from Richmond and first encounter with LOV; a most impressive
  visit of a lifetime:  Huge!  Cool! Glorius!  Immaculate!  Secure!  Efficient!
  Modern!  Up-to-date!  Magnificent!  Overwhelming!  Yielding!  Informative!
  Complete!  Intimidating! Beautiful!
  Take only cash (for copies), a picture ID (for a required card) and a pencil
  with note paper because ink instruments in Special Collections causes panic
  and wrath!
  Proud to have Virginia blood,
  Ed Sherman
