Thanks a lot MM. I was thrilled to find my book in the mail today. I sure gave me a good feeling. I know the other guys felt the same way. I had to show mine to the lady at the post office. She was tickled also. On my was home I saw a guy metal detecting at an old home site, and I stopped to talk to him. He was new at the hobby, and I was able to give his some info. Also showed him my book before I left. I'm still excited. Thanks for the message.
