I think he thought I got 'em all, but I only requested the third line item, not the entire lot. 'Course, if you have a basic TRIG book in there that he doesn't want...I've forgotten the 2 hours of trig instrauction (1/2 dozen pages, IIRC) I received in Coleman College's Computer Electronics Technology (comp repair) course back in '88. I most certainly don't need calculus books. Alas, my math fu is weak. -- If the only prayer you ever say in your whole life is "thank you," that would suffice. -- Meister Eckhart |

Bless you, and yeah, they proly would look good over here, but as you can well imagine, I think I'm exceeding the structural limits of my hovel as it is, AND le wife would kill me -- she now monitors what comes in le hovel. And I don't even know what I would do with the Kline Vol 1 -- it's more like salmon spawning, I'm so ****ed about it having grown legs. Amazing how difficult that book is to find. -- EA -- Ned Simmons |

What will happen to dead-tree books? Don't have one, but I think these look a lot nicer than Kindle: http://www.pocketbookreader.com/ Kindle don't/won't read epub format nor fb2, djvu, html... which eliminates a whole bunch of free stuff floating around the web. Don't support any memory cards either. Quite a few Tablet computers coming out now. A lot more $$$ though... -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |
