18" is indeed the typical distance between countertop and bottom edge
of the upper cabinets. It's 18" because the countertop is at a 36"
height. Wall cabinets are typically installed with their tops at 84",
and the 'standard' wall cabinet height is 30"... so 84-36-30=18.

Gee, John. After getting all that info we no longer have
to buy your book. wink

P.S: Pg4 of your pdf didn't show up for me yesterday when
I was looking over your site and saw the sample PDF. You
might want to check into it. (both IE and NN don't see it)
