Hello Mr. Tore, Maciek, and All,
Maciek, I really like the photos of the BBC unit; a great find...
Skizzenbuch, seems to be going along OK with the publisher. I have not had any return emails or notices for issues with my original text file, or the printed Metal Leather Covered Post Binder Book (11 x 17).
During the past 30 days, I have gone through eye operations for cataracts in both eyes. I didn't realize my eyesight was that bad. However, while writing Skizzenbuch, it became more difficult to focus on my computer screen. When I first went to the eye doctor, they attempted to measure the thickness of the cataracts running down the center of both eyes with a light reflecting instrument. However, on one eye they had to use a device with water and sound (i.e., ASDIC/SONAR) to measure the thickness; it was that bad.
After the first eye lens replacement, it was amazing - I could see clearly and the colors, they were so bright and vivid. I could cover the now good eye and the other normal eye still had the wide cataract streak down the middle, but the other areas of sight was like looking through a glass of iced tea. I didn't realize my eyesight was so deteriorated over the years. Three weeks later, the other eye lens was replaced in the Laser Assisted cataract surgery. I was far sighted so I had the astigmatism corrective lenses installed which cost me $3330.00 total and worth every penny.
I will keep everybody updated on the Schiffer Publishing progress with Skizzenbuch...
Regards,
Don_
