I talked with Alan (he's a member of CRG). He's happy that the site is up and running. But there's a lot of data left to upload!

Does anyone know why Alan is putting all of this info on his site? Won't this reduce the amount of books sold?

could be he is a true enthusiast and is not out to line his pockets (gasp). besides it is easier (for me anyway)to buy a book to have handy while looking at a car or parts instead of lugging a computer around.at home the computer is ok and i would not want to take a lap top to a swap meet.
You can look at the site at home and see updates as they are published.

Hondo:
That is very true regarding the handiness of your own set of books, I wouldn't trade mine for the laptop. I was just thinking someone could just as easily print only those sections that interest them form the website rather than buy the book. I think Alan has done a good job, especially when used in conjunction with other reference material to see all of the variations on certain codes.
