Walter right now you have to search at least one book for each decade and
currently 8 soon to be 9 books for the 90s when you are looking for a
cultivar.  With a master index for the interim until we can get the
electronic version you can find out exactly which R&I the particular
cultivar is in.  To me that will save lots of time and be really worth it.

Ruth,
I for one would be willing to send money ahead of time and pay S&H.  I think
that 50 copies is way too small.
