Subject: Errata List for Stunt Kites/Stunt Kites II Is the errata list for Servas' and Nop's books available online? -- === James Petts === In the world of CD-ROM, a horse will always be an herbivorous quadruped, and there'll be endless examples to prove just that. But that world will never tell you how it feels to ride a horse.

The measurements give 66 + 16 = 82 cm. This can be verified by calculation, and the fact that the big Zipp should be exactly twice the size of the small. -- /-\ () >< () |\/| () >< () /-\ o /\ Kite Jumping: Read the Kite FAQ's: ftp.hawaii.edu:/pub/rec/kites/faq |_ \/ If you want For sale: Prototype Keelless Rowlands Flowform.
