: Okay, you have finally convinced me. I'm on the hunt for Bernstein's book. I hope his ideas are easy to implement. I seem to get started on something and get excited, then go through burnout. I can use some good A1Cs. Until I read the book, I'll just read your posts. Ever thought of just putting all those in book form and becoming a rich writer. (Your right, that is called plagarism--maybe not a good idea.)Thanks, Mark. I do appreciate your knowledge and sharing.
