Dear primos, family, and friends. . .  

Hope all are well in this season of spontanous weather changes . . .



To facilitate searching through previous issues of Somos Primos, my
grandson Luke have created a single file of all the Tables of
Contents for the 2002-2005 issues. 



All the Tables of Contents are connected, which means you can do a category
search based on the division in Somos Primos, such as BLACK or SPAIN,
or a keyword search  on the titles.  An overview of the
contents of Issues 2000 and 2001 is facilitated by the use of a subject
index created by John P. Schmal.



Once you have identified the issues of interest, then go the homepage
and click to any issue of interest. Hope this helps.
