The current government mentioned that ehy would attempt to get it going again,
finding a way through the rules. However, the prior attempt in 1996 was crushed
harshly and suspended. The stress caused the guy runnning it to quit school.
Again, I was not there for the current semester,s o if they have restarted it,
mazel tov.
Further, they may have engaged in the swap with another private firm (like
Greeks 'n' Sneaks) which backed an abortive attempt some time earlier for a book
exchange.
Your suggestion has merit.
