Hello Neal,

Now I feel late to the party.

I had been wondering just what the Almanac had and now I know, I am thinking about ordering one but I would prefer the 1st edition of course.

I am guessing that I am to late for a signed copy?:hmm:

That's quite an impressive stack there. You're going to have a sore wrist after signing all those.

Well, I'm still pretty sure all those books put together ways less than a single copy of Friedman's new Naval Weapons Systems book.

No, sir, I ordered enough to cover all the preorders and will have plenty left over. To order a First Edition, simply point your bow here:

If you want it signed, be sure to put that in the notes part of the Paypal form, or send me an e-mail.

thanks!
Neal

Lol, almost.

BTW, you and Takeda, send me an e-mail with your address, your copies are boxed and ready to go.

cheers

Thanks, you guys made this possible. Now, we have to make this a big seller so I can get a movie deal, and use the money to buy a Russian sub for the World Subsim Tour, a cruise ship for subsim guys everywhere.

AMon, you will love it. I ordred the book to show my support of the people who wrote it and it is better than I was expecting. This is better than most of the submarine books I have read, funny, interesting and it has many serious researched articles. I recognize many guy's names from this forum in the book.

Sorry about that, I signed a bunch but I tried to limit it to those who included a request to sign the book in their order via Paypal or who PMed or e-mailed me. There was a guy or two who specifically did not want it signed and I tried to be careful.

I see I missed you and Camaero's request to have it signed by not re-reading all the posts in this thread, sorry

All in all, my sigs not worth much, the real genius came from Horsa, Wrratt, Dex, Dr Ross, Ted Savas, Kelly Asay, Jason Lobo, Torplexed, etc....
