A Note to Those Outside of the USA and Canada

I've been told by a couple of readers that several of the publications in TLOFCRP will not send copies of their publications for free to addresses outside of the USA and Canada (due to the additional postage costs). If your subscription request is denied for this reason, and you really want to receive that publication, you may want to contact them and offer to pay enough to cover the additional postage costs. This runs contrary to the central theme of TLOFCRP (totally free publications), but such special circumstances justify bending the rules a little bit.
