Trevor,
Nice. How long did it take you to pull everything together, edit it, and get it published?

Bill,
I must have worked on it over a period of say 18 months I would guess. A lot of old stuff in hard copy had to be scanned and run through text recognition software, which is not very accurate therefore requiring a lot of sorting out. However it was a fun project for my old mate.

Cheers, Trevor.

Greetings Phil,

I well remember our get together Dec. 2002 and hope you may have business down this way again and with more time to spare. Knowing your interests I am sure you will find many parts of the book worth reading.

Old Ralph is sadly in the last stages of Parkinson's Disease and four of us are traveling down to Te Aroha in the Waikato, on Thursday to see him. He is in a very nice hospital there. You were down that way so will know the area. We have been doing this regularly, in style, always in one or another Subaru.

Cheers, Trevor.

Hi Trevor, When you take your last breath you hope your friends will be there, and I think Ralf will have no worries on that score. The parts of the book I read were while it was printing out the rest but I found it quite interesting and will get right on it after I get eight hours under my belt as its a little after three AM now. I think Ralf Watson will be much better known In the USA as a result of your book. Take care, BOBB

Greetings Bobb, your printer must have been working hard. It will be much easier to read in hard copy and you are better off by US$34 odd, the overall cost of a copy I airmailed to the US today. Postage at about US$13 makes it expensive.

Cheers, Trevor.

At the risk of being labeled self seeking, I have brought this thread forward, as some who could be interested may have passed it by.
