It's been a while since I've seen any posts pertaining to this great resource, so I figured I'd toss one up.
I was never much for learning tabbed solos but found myself frustrated when trying to get a feel for Niel Flanz's wonderful ride on Gram Parson's "Drug Store Truck Drivin' Man" (Gram Parsons And The Fallen Angels Live 1973)
I popped over to my computer, poked around for a minute, and there it was. Thanks to John Steele's tabbing efforts I quickly figured that I was barking up the wrong tree inversion-wise. Voila!
While I'll never achieve the touch, feel, and subtlety of Mr. Flanz, I found myself one rung higher on the seemingly endless ladder of pedal steel edification.
My humble thanks to all who have given of their time and resources to help other steelers!

Lawrence, you certainly have a way with woids! 
Yes, this is a most valuable site and a great gift to the steel community. This site has helped many, many people and will continue to do so.

As many thanks as possible to Graham and Ricky would still not suffice- this is a real treasure and a goldmine of steel music! There is enough stuff to keep us off the streets for a good long while.
Thanks again, again!
