Thanks David,

My existing customers know the products for what they are. I would  
have ignored his comments altogether but an inaccurate and mean  
spirited review like that can scare away prospective customers -  
especially when it is the most recent review. But that has been fixed  
thanks to several happy customers. Now Randy has had his little 15  
minutes of fame and we can all go back to enjoying the hobby.
