Greetings All!
I have a patron seeking a book he remembers reading in the 1970s. The =
book is about a family traveling together in a plane that flies through a =
green cloud. When the plane lands the family discovers everyone on earth =
has been turned to stone, although the animals are still alive. The =
family then tries to find other survivors.
Let me know off-list if you have any solutions and I will post the =
results!
Thanks! - Donnae

I am attaching a statement of apology from Robert Wedgeworth, former
Executive Director of the American Library Association, for the errors
in his article, "Seeds of Prosperity", part II, appearing in the
February 2003 issue of American Libraries. He asks that this message be
disseminated widely. Thank you.
______________________________
I regret that there was an inexcusable confusion of facts in part II
of
"Seeds of Prosperity", (American Libraries, February 2003).
Archibald
Cox was the Watergate Special Prosecutor, not the Solicitor General.
Elliott Richardson did not fire Cox, but resigned rather than do so at
Nixon's directive. I apologize for any embarrassment and pain that
these errors may cause the Association, the individuals involved, or
their families and friends.
Robert Wedgeworth
