Great idea Bruce!! I just made a PayPal donation (sent you proof) to Becca for all of her efforts. BTW, from time to time I try to donate small amounts hoping that others do the same and they add up. We NEED and APPRECIATE you Becca!!

ALSO - I still have my copy of both of your books that I got from you in the early 70's. I'm not sure about you, but dang I'm old!! LOL! Bubba

LOL i love the idea of taking away vaulting information unless you pay up :P. I think its all for a great cause, and a ton of vaulters wouldnt have ANY info if it werent for this site. The only way the site can stay up is by money.... So if i get permission from my parents, ill drop some donations your way :). take it easy

Great. I used PayPal and it took maybe three minutes. All I can say is that before Becca, there was Vaultn' Gus, who carried this torch for 10 years until he flat burned out. I'm thrilled that Becca LOVES doing this and I'm happy to offer a little support here and there. Bubba

Thanks for your support

Thanks for your support
I wanted to provide the info for a good cause. It has value for the readers but I did not want to monetarily gain from it personally. So this was the best way to get the info out free and still gain something of value for it. The book in 1972 when gas prices were about $.99 per gallon was $6.50 plus $1.50 postage. Today gas is three times that amount this info is available for less than it originally was sold for just a $5.00 donation that shows our gratitude for what Becca does daily for us.
I do not intend to take away the info if one does not pay, I intend after a certain amount of donations to open it up for all PV POWER Members

I got a copy of The Elusive Bar on eBay once and gave it away as a present :( It was a really sweet book.



Thanks Bruce :)

Sorry guys, I am not sure why the shipping and handling charges are coming up for regular donations. I don't have time to fix it right now, so for now if it is charging you the S&H, just reduce the amount of your donation until it comes out right :confused:

no problem

I had a copy of this book that my coach loaned to me in the late 70s. I looked at it and studied it so much that it fell apart. He didn't get too mad at me. It was a great book!

New Offer to obtain FREE Access to my Book
