John Coop's area had a bad electrical storm this morning. His power is knocked out by lightening and his wiring in his house is damaged. He does not know the extent of damage to his computer. It may be fragged, along with all his contacts and files.Let's hope not. Thank the Lord his house didn't catch fire.

So John asked me to post this so everyone knows why he can't get back with anyone right now, and he asked me to extend his regrets this is happening, and he apologises for the resulting delays and communication problems, and any inconvenience. He thanks you for your patience.

This is dreadful. My thoughts are with you, Coop. Hopefully it all works out okay.

John,
Sorry to hear about your house--glad to hear it didn't catch fire and you and the family are okay--we had a home here in Okla City that was also hit yesterday a.m. and it did suffer major fire damage--I did get my LDG Decal BTW and as always appreciate your quick response! Let us know if we can help... Carl

We can.... John, please post your PayPal email. I'll donate 25.00 to it immediately. I know it is not much, but with several others, it can make the difference. A buck here and there can make all the difference!

We'll do it!

Hope all is well. The other morning right up the street from my house a home was struck by lightening and even though the folks were home at the time, by the time they called fire dept and got out of the house, half of it had burned.

Well that certainly explains why Coop hasn't gotten back to me,
about a RKR lever kit and some other parts.

I guess I will send a paypal in advance for things.

Coop can get paypal at

Cshobud1@wmconnect.com

Though there's now some question if he can
TELL if he got it or not.

So if you send post it here I guess.
It will likely go right to his credit card etc.
About the time he needs top go to
Home Depot and Computer World with it...

Coop, you still haven't come up for air.
So I reasonably assume your computer is DOA.
I sent $100 on account..
on acounta you might need it
to buy a new computer to get back
on line. And then get orders moving.

We'll sort it out in parts at some future date.

Good luck!
DD
