Hi all. Just so everyone knows, I cant read The Lottery for personal reasons. Nothing against the story or author or your choices but I can't read it again. Not trying to cause trouble just want to let everyone know ahead of time on that one so you aren't upset if I don't participate in that one as it seems to be currently ahead by a large margin. Thanks for being understanding. I am going to read another of the stories for my own interest.

I'm a total fan of the 'full text available online' stuff. Just because I'm broke. But I wanted to say, thanks for the links... they are appreciated. :)
