Thank you! Now I really have to decide whether or not to take Mary Stewart's Trilogy plus the best World Atlas available,(probably National Geographic's)and probably should take a copy of The Bible. Subject to change, of course. But that is my first 5.

*LOL* Wolfie, I would not have thought of it. Must be a Larousse's Encyclodedia of Desert Island life, and the Zagat Guide to good food on same.
How about a Fodor's Guide so you get the best of palm trees to shade you...
Why not just take a laptop...or is that heresy (and where is the electricity?!)

Hey, Terry has a palm pilot which shoots straight for the satellite without a modem... But, you cannot surf the Spring very easily with it - or for very long...

...but it would not do. I could never again see remember buttons (if, indeed, I ever will again...) with the palm pilot. That is too big a loss to ask me to bear.
