Dear Ken & Mars Educators, After reading Ken's message, I checked out the Library of Congress homepage. There on their site was Civilzation "just a click away." Their "current" issue is listed is 5/96! Someone needs to talk to their web master! With fingers crossed I called our local library, but knowing that they don't even have current up to date "phonebooks" and other county periodicals, I did not think "Civilization" stood a chance. >From there I called our local bookstore hoping that they might at least obtain it for me (without my having to go up to DC) but the idea was quickly squelched. Then, knowing that universities are "reservoirs" of culture and "civilization", I called our university libraries only to find that with each call the path to "Civilization" lead only to a "dead end" Using my last resource, I extended my quest for "Civilization" to the other side of the Blue Ridge Mts. in Charlottesville and there at Barnes & Noble "Civilization" was found ! So it is out there! Hope your quest is easier and more local than mine!! Marilyn Kennedy-Wall John Wayland Elem here in the Shenandoah Valley, where the scenery is awesome and you are just a short skip and a jump from "civilization" on the other side of the Blue Ridge!
