Hart" Subject: Wizard of OZ Lines: 44 The Project Gutenberg Etext of the Wizard of Oz is being posted, and should be ready for download by noon, Central Standard Time. This choice was made by popular demand for a seasonal literature release, and several other books are being considered, including other books in the Oz series, one of which we may release today, February 26, 1993--CBS TV presentation of the classic 1939 movie starring Judy Garland, Bert Lahr (Lion), Ray Bolger (Scarecrow), Jack Haley (Tin Woodman), Frank Morgan (Oz), & Margaret Hamilton (The Wicked Witch of the West) with Billie Burke (Good Witch). I hope I got all that correct, we have been in a big hurry as it was thought the movie would be aired next month.

Hart" Subject: Sequel to Oz Lines: 19 Please add ozland10.txt and .zip to the previous posting. This is the sequel, but the characters are NOT the same in most of it. It has also NOT been edited much by me, and so many more widows and orphans will appear than usual, but I thought you might like to see without delay. sqrt2.txt and .zip will be posted by Monday, I hope, along with at least one etext I hope will be an addition to previous discussions. ===================================================== Thank you for your interest, Michael S.
