    Hey Dan,

    I don't know if I ever responded to you...but we were unable to secure a booth at FDIC this year.
    We could really use the help t-shirt sales brings us...so please let others know this as well.
    Shirts can be purchased individually with $1 for shipping or multiples with free drop shipping at our website:
