Thank you for uploading the manual. Now if only I could find Jem Driscoll's
classic book on how to cultivate a straight left. I know that it once was
posted on the net, but is no longer. I don't have the money at the time for the
book due to bills that I have to pay.
If anyone has it in web form, we would all be glad to see and have it.
Thank!
