Perhaps that is the reason - you might want to do it more often :D
Kind of amazing what they knew and could do almost 800 years ago isn't it.
Hmmmm - kinda strange. Other books say just the opposite. Check Heritage, they have 20 pages of 1887 Morgans and all of them, at least every one I...

OK - it was just that based on your comment it sounded like you were disputing Conder's comment that the info would be available for free to all....
