Martin Juhasz@geerlingguy thanks for sharing this! do you have any idea how many hours over the years you put into this book?
@martinjuhasz I'd estimate a lot more in the first 3 years, but still about 50-100 hours per year since. Maybe casual estimate of 3000-4000?
Would be a lot less if I just chucked out one edition and never updated it, like old school books are done.
