Through Oasis? Sure, I'd do that. That's not such a big deal. But
if you're asking if I would do it the old way - with stacks of boxes
in my house and me stuffing envelopes, filling orders and trudging to
the post office for months and months - hell no. That's the *point*.

And that was okay with you? You didn't mind? It wasn't an extra
workload and inconvenience?

Well, that's fine. Like I said, if you're willing to do all that
again, go for it. If you're proposing to do that, that's great. I
made a different proposal, and it really doesn't matter all that much
to me which way we do it. But if *I* am going to do it, I do NOT want
a living room full of boxes and I don't want to get to know the
postman on a first-name basis. If *you* want to, that's okay by me.
