[Reader-users] Carrying the Reader

[Tracy Carcione]

Terry,
It's a good thought, but I'm already carrying my backpack and my laptop,
and there's a limit of 2 carry-ons.  And a limit to what I can physically
manage.  I feel like a donkey, or a turtle, carrying my house on my back.
Thanks for the ideas, though.
Tracy
