This book really sound very interesting
This book almost sounds cloak and dagger type stuff. You'll have to forgive me, I don't know who LMR is, maybe we aren't suppose to which is fine. Thank you, it sounds like it was a good impression. Rags to riches story are good ones to hear about, it keeps people reaching for their goals. Cat

Cat, you have made a impression on me, because the number of folks I would even let handle the 300 pages or so, is small to say the least.
B4 anybbody asks, no, we are not going to ruin the binding to scan it in.
Nor would I violate the copyright.
Of course we might scan in the famous chapter 2, all one page of it.

Clarification............
I meant cloak and dagger in the way you and Adam were talking about the book. That it was some kind of code book that only a few knew about. I didn't mean to infer anything else. Cat

LMR + l. Michael Roberts, Famous Canadian Laserist,
And no, we are NOT related, he's South African by birth.

The cloak and dagger theme is mostly because copies of the book are exceedingly rare these days. It's out of print, and there is little hope of getting L. Michal Roberts to authorize a reprinting.
