Dick,
Over on The Ship Model Forum I've been pushing "The Book" whenever I can in any thread/topic that it would be more than appropriate for the participants to read. At the moment that's two separate threads dealing with battleship models, etc. However, to be honest, the more enlightened battleship enthusiasts (both educationally and historically) appear to be members of this forum. We do have several modeler/writer/historians that are some of the more knowledgeable members, but also some younger members who seem to think that Wikipedia is the only source of reference and anyone whose actually served on a BB, etc. is out of touch.
Whether I've been successful or not is something I'll probably never know, but that doesn't deter me in the least!
Hope Mrs. L. is on the mend and I'm glad you brought up the AMEX/Costco item - I had forgotten about that - perhaps a sticky on the dashboard to remind me to pay cash!!

I'm also running low on happiness because not a single copy of my book has been sold this month. Hope just one sells before next Tuesday and I can count it as a birthday present for my 80th year on this planet. But if one doesn't sell, well, I have a back up plan
