The "big box" bookstore's corporate folks claimed they never heard of it (despite being listed as such)so I emailed the local distributor who was able to tell me where they had shipped some copies. Called the specialty magazine store in question verified they had some ,then drove twenty miles to get it. maybe a subscription is cheaper... In summary, -my point: I found the distributor via Elector webpage Dave At 11:20 AM 5/15/04 -0500, Jim Korman wrote: >Anthony Van Herrewege wrote: > >>Elektuur (Elektor in English?) has published a wind speed & direction > >meter in their magazine this month.
