Hi, Jim:

Well, *this* part of "we" doesn't, although I get your point
[grin]. Certainly there can't be any complaint about someone who
does choose to record them.

I don't use TMG's repository feature. But I do include
"repository-like" information in my Bibliography output for
anything that might not be readily and widely available. I don't
usually do that if the only question is where I saw it, myself,
but 10% of the libraries in the country have a copy.

Darrell
