Mr. Loew|

	Thank you for your interest in the forthcoming book  
{\it LISP: Programming and Proving}  by John McCarthy and myself.
I regret that there are no copies of the manuscript currently available.
I have put your name on the list of people interested in the book
and you will be notified as soon as it is available.

	I am returning the money you enclosed.  

\bletend(20pt-Sincerely)
