Rooster89 0 Posted December 9, 2009 Sorry Lou, I looked for the thread which you had that list in to see if this book was already on there, but I couldnt find it. Thanks again for the link to the zip file. -Rooster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted December 9, 2009 . No need to apologize Rooster, you wanted to share a good book with the rest of us. There should never be an issue with posting items of interest here simply because they may have been posted before. With all the new people coming in this sort of info is likely unknown to them, so the only way they may come across it is if it keeps showing up in threads just like yours Sir. Cheers! Lou .
