- Thanks for the reminder, Chris. Yes everyone, this is a GREAT
- trade show that anyone interested in the Amusement Industry should
- try and attend at least once in their life!!
-
- I had originally planned to be there for the convention, and then
- the ACE TG III event, but weirdness at work cancelled all that!

- I would love to see what Bollinger and Mabillard have to offer,
- as well as RCCA/TOGO, Chance Rides Inc., Huss, and Wieland
- Schwarzkopf GmbH. Wieland, fwiw, is no longer being represented
- by BHS. BHS has dropped all fabrication of steel amusement
- rides. Schwarzkopf is now secure under a new distributor --
- I forget their name off the top of my head, but it's the same
- German-based comapny which Wieland's father, Anton, subcontracted
- all his fabrication work for his world-famous steel monstrosities.

- Have fun skiing, Chris. What out for those negative g producing
- moguls ... remember, anything over -.5 g's is unacceptable! 8^)
