The 502 page paper book that replaced this forum and the website made for this forum was originally 500 copies.

It has been several years and over 1/2 are gone and the people I wrote it for refuse to read it even when we give them a free copy……so that experiment failed.

next step is to take the last 100 books and sale them "only" with the usb option which will probably take another 3+ years before they are gone.

WHEN there are only 100 left, that will be the only option left for that paper book.

Then I will erase most all of the words and keep the majority of the pictures. Delete all personal pictures, personal stories and reduce the book backwards to the "original" 108 pages of 20 years ago and use all color pictures.

When you have 1 tiny color picture on a page, they charge you for the entire page as though it was a full color picture. So only when a book is small is it practical to use color.

In color the pictures are 10x better.

I will then enlarge the pictures and write a paragraph about each picture and basically rewrite the book from scratch and keep it as "simple" and "fast" reading as possible……….

I find it amazing how people that do read--ya know, the endless fake books amazon sells by the millions---can't put the fake books down and even read them on vacation for "pleasure"……..yet, the few that do have the 502 page book---when they ask you about something and you tell them it was "ALL" in their book---they almost always have the same answer---they have never read it.

I think the size intimidates them and the fact they really do not want to know why they are dying and why the family members are dying and they prefer the pain drug route of putting them selves out of their misery…..those types also are "collectors" of herbs and buy bottles and keep them in their closet and often hidden from their mate………

YES, there are a handful that read and learn and have changed their life……some of them treasure their monster book and wish they had more volumes.

My plan is the return of the 108 pages---the basics and descriptions….a no name book that will last forever……never needing edited to "update".

After I print the short version, I will put the original on the USB option in full color---that will probably be about 3-4 years from now.
