        Anyone wanting to get a copy of this book, Bob's wife/widow, Karla, still has several copies. Last I heard, they were $40 but that included shipping. Contact her at karlaj@kc.rr.com to see if that's changed and to tell her you're intersted.

              Sounds like it didn't take that long after you sent it to the right email address? lol.

              Sorry this thread got moved. I have no association or make any money from this book, but Karla is a friend and was just trying to help those that were wanting the book. I wasn't personally trying to sell anything. If I post about where to buy air filters, a web site, and a price, do we need to move that too?

                Not quite sure what the infringement was for just moving the thread... It was in the discussion area where, generally, maintenance posts are kept... I left the link to get here...

                        I had sent a private message but I think she might not be checking into the forum so often. I'll be sending an email and hopefully I can get one of these.
