Ever tried to argue with someone over the Internet?

Well, if anyone could figure out how to doit, it would be the daughters of this publisher. They love to argue about anything!

I was trying to "converse" with older daughter, Amy, in Arizona while the younger one, Cathy, was looking over my shoulder making snide comments in answer to her sis- ter's snide comments. (They both come by it honestly, I must admit.)

I finally gave up and turned the connection over to Cathy! I don't know where it went from there.

At least this way, the arguments aren't nearly so loud!
