This list looks very good so far! I'll keep an eye out, and update where necessary.

Nice work!

[Scott Card]

This is a great resource. THANK YOU!

[jman]

is there any AMGA manuals or other similar offical texts for download (like .pdf)? that would be awesome! Like lectures almost or something similar. My theory could definitely use some revamping...

[Scott Card]

Bump.... the flash flood season is upon us. Don't forget to check the link above for the watches and warnings. Thanks again Stefan for putting most if not all this together.

I still like the dog in Heaps story the best!
