I think isn't important , THE 90 % OF THE LINKS DON'T WORK OR ARE BROKEN . But you are totally right , most of these are copyrighted and easy findable , and no one of these are "Abandon-Books".

How a few Berbers can go until the peninsule (in the century VIII , with no horseshoe until century XIII ). Other documents say that the the Jewish people help to pass the strait t...

Different things : If Totally newbie (like me) I think the VR is the entry level. As I know adjust the plate/motor isn't trivial , no talk about the evidence (75 Kg/cm2 isnt the same as 1,5 or any other home super-torque turntable you can get , this maybe is the reason of Souri not selling this expa...
