Thanks for the kind words about our book in the letter to the editor. I just watched your vid a few weeks ago and am telling everyone I come in contact with how good it is.
I'm in Orlando right now, but will try and buzz you when I get back to Seattle next week.
If you need to get ahold of me sooner, give me a ring at 425-238-2928.
You are doing tremendous work brother...
