Just a quick note to add that Rick Ward was in attendance at the Blade show on Sunday for a short time. Rick has been slammed with work (his regular job) and had been called out of town for the past week or so. He told me he wasn't happy, having to pay for his table (They cost $500 and up) and not able to attend...."BUT"...(I know) he is still, very much, in business.
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris
