    Jim Budde asked about iceboat plans.

    The third post down is from BrianCunningham, who lists this:

    Sorry to be a pain, but I don't know how to use that info. Can someone explain what to do with that list to find/identify the articles listed? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    regards,

    The first # = WB Issue, second Number = Page. 110:40 means issue # 110, page 40. Hope this is what you meant.

    The WB Index is totally comprehensive, listing photos and various citations that deal with a particular subject. While it is wonderful, at times there may be too much information there.
