    Well, I'll hafta find it. A lot has happened in a month and a half. I'll look when I get home tomorrow.

    You guys can pass it around if you want. Doesn't matter much if it ends up back in my hands.

    WeldrDave is right, if it's a collectable and all. I think I can power through reading it on the puter.

    You can't find one anywhere! I have a signed copy from Bob. They are like trying to find Giraffe eggs… If you could find one, I'll bet it would be $100.00 or more.

    Thats why I posted it for all to enjoy, It's really a neat story.

    Pity what happened to Fisher stoves, between the EPA and the lawsuits. Such a tragic thing. :(

    Thanks for posting this! I have a Mamma Bear that heats our house. I enjoyed reading about the history of the stoves, but it makes me sad too to see how something simple can become a nightmare. It reminded me again why I got out of the car business, the bigger the dealership got, the less I liked it.
    I did think there was going to be more to the ending also. I went back and was looking for more chapters. I started to look for some more history on him and the company.
