As I mentioned to Alioth before, I would be very willing to do this were I =

co-PC for Chapter Weekend who is willing to help me out if BookEx
apprenticeship is keeping me from doing Chapter Weekend business, then I wi=

be delighted to take on this apprenticeship.
Please respond if you're willing to co-PC chapter weekend with me! It reall=

won't be too bad (Zev and I managed to co-PC a MUCH longer Afterfinals whil=

one of us was writing a thesis and the other was studying for 5 finals) and
I'll make sure that it's less work than apprenticing for BookEx would be. =
