This is true.. I was thinking about my own books, not what might

You are right about that not being easily available online. I heard it
in person and probably didn't catch all of it but I did hear the
comment about how good a year they are having, but it doesn't show up
in a search. Maybe an online rebroadcast of the show could be found.

That was on the Taking Stock show on Sept. 25th with Amanda Lang
talking to Heather Reisman for part of the show.  (CP24)
