Any other suggested reading? Really? If you want to know about weather, Dennis Pagen's book about weather is really informative. But I can't remember the name of the book Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev_S 0 #3 October 21, 2013 I'm reading a couple of Brian Germain's books. "The parachute and it's pilot" "transcending fear" I also read "Above all Else" but it's biography, not really for education. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
