[78-L] BOOK PUBLISHING DEADLINES..HOW TIGHT? ^

[Michael Biel]

Was the book PRINTED in the U.S. or Canada, or somewhere else like 
Singapore or China?  While pages can now be instantly sent to printers 
by the internet, it still takes time to get the printed books back here 
to the U.S. from Asia or Europe.
