[KISS BOB]

DEAR FRANCIS,
      Well, I live in Barbados and can neither pick it up 
nor could I ever use an entire case but, as was previously 
recommended, if someone wants to take it and sell it in 
smaller quantities (1 lb or 1 kg) I would happily buy some 
and have it shipped to my brother in Missouri who can 
forward it to me here.
      Please keep me in this loop.
                     CHEERS!
                          BOB
