What a day! Computer quit while I was talking to Mike Ransom from Intercollegiate Press [ICP], Kansas City Missouri. He was just checking! Had not talked to Steve White (Steve said Thursday he was the other line!) Said could not have book by March 1st- paste up takes a month! And printing a month- had to have it all at one time.
Computer and external video both blank. Went to shop but couldn’t get into WordStar with my file on their MS-DOS machine. To Center and picked up my Osborne I I gave them. Home and before switching computers checked outlets and noticed reset button. That fixed it! Finished bird count story and Mary came out to take it to the Star.
