Hi Larry,

  It was great to see you again at BrickFest.  I appreciate your interest in my
pneumatics creations.

  I've already had the pleasure of co-authoring with Dr. Soh, and would enjoy it
again if it were to take place.

  I've tested the waters with No Starch press before, and could probably publish
a book on LEGO pneumatics if I wanted to.  I guess I feel that pneumatics is
such a small niche that there wouldn't be a big enough market for it.  Maybe I'm
wrong.  It is hard to tell how many lurkers there are, and how many would want
to buy a book soley on pneumatics.

  Do you think a book on walkers (both pneumatic and motorized) might be a
better seller?
