I wasn't too bright either, Walt. I should have bought up
a bunch of "Reflections II" when they were available. :-)
Somebody over on eHam.net just reported a used one for sale
for $180.00.

You ought to see what old physics texts, like Feynman and Hibbs or Morse and
Feshback sell for.
Oh well. Goes to show ya, the classics keep their value!
