I very much dislike arguing about petty issues of little consequence on public Internet forums, so I will try my best to refrain from doing so in the future. However, I will make an exception this time, and say that I am justified in priding myself on an obstacle overcome. A book that is next to impossible to acquire is now in my possession through creative thinking, tedious work and proper use of library facilities. If other users are in need of this work to create higher quality instruments, I encourage them to do the same. That's my final comment on the subject, and will not waste anyone else's web space or time.
