There's a *reason* why stuff like Burroughs and Wells is getting harder
to find. It's in the Public domain, which means that the publishers
have to worry about "what if somebody *else* prints a copy that's
better/cheaper/whatever than ours?" Which generally means that they
don't bother.

On the other hand, this has it's advantages. There are *several* groups
making PD materail available in electronic form on both Fidonet and the
Internet. I've got the first 5 Burroughs "Mars" books on my HD. I'm
considering running them through a travesty generator to see if it'll
produce a usable plot for an adventure. :-)
