!When posting a 'phone number, also post a fax number and/or a non-800
!number. Those of us who reside outside the USA cannot call US toll-free
!numbers. If there is no fax/tollfree number, or if you don't know, inform.

G'day Rulf,

Jon did say `people in the US' which probably implies that he does
not know the non-toll-free numbers. However, your point is well taken.

Here is a FAX number that you might try. I don't know if it is
the order number but maybe it will get you the order number.

FAX 212-473-6272
