Mike, I too have many manuals, ( and have studied them) however, All is not learned by reading alone. Books are a fantastick guide, but 'hands on' and 'practical knowlege'are far superior in the 'real world'. I admire you for the manual suggestion, however, along other lines I would remind you that only one book or any one source of info is not enough to formulate a good understanding of how something may work or can be done, for a good example, your short-sightedness regarding electrical generation..I would only assume that by your stance you would not mind being the first one cut off from electrical energy when we soon become short of it?? Anyway, Books are nice but practicality is far superior knowlege. John in Idaho... go ahead..blast away...
