    hope you enjoy it

    Techman,

    I hope you enjoy the second edition of Radiant Precision. It's got a lot of new material in it.

    I would be interested in any feedback you might offer on it.

    The first live Radiant Precision seminar takes place this Wednesday, just before the RPA show opens in Chicago.

    P.S. Keep you calculator handy to work through the formulas.

    Already have it

    Got it a couple months ago. Will there be a Readers' Digest large print edition?

    The layout of each page is somewhat poor, lots' of empty space at the top of each and every page. The size of the type (font, pica?) on the diagrams and schematics is so small I need a magnifying glass to read them. Not sure why it had to be that way. Leave the empty space on the first page of each chapter, then run the rest of the pages from top to bottom. Give the diagrams and piping layouts some room.

    And no, it's not my eyes. 20/15, courtesy of the latest and greatest ladar-vision.

    I'll see you Wednesday, signed up long time ago.

    1st,lets keep in mind that I am a toolbox toteing mechanic;2nd,for the most part a calculator to me is when I have to take off my boots for higher mathmatics;3rd I predict I will have to read your book more than once just to grab the concepts of just what it is you are trying to teach this refrigeration/AC minded mechanic.I've read MANY of your articles in the PM magazine and yikes,I have a lot to learn ,BUT, I do try and try hard.I also have your book "Modern Hydronic Heating",which I have read some part's more than once.So please don't expect any feedback from me in the near future.This past early spring a new customer showed me his residential mechanical room and said "this is your's" and I said to myself"what the heck is ALL of this Taco stuff",so I signed up for classes by John Barba,and your Webinair seminars.Where I go ,my books go! Just a student of the art's.

    When it comes down to it, we're all still students.

    Thank goodness there's smarter people (lots of them to me!) out there willing to share!

    Keep learning, Rich L
