I wonder how long Mike's ears ring after 1-2 minutes of setting behind that T'bolt%^&$#@ Actually, it isn't that bad. The siren itself shakes to all hell when it's running, but when I did the chopper and rotator test, I wasn't running the blower, but I did have plugs in the ears. When I run it ...

Thats pretty cool! Is Tim Nelson any relation to you? Nope, there are like a million Nelsons up here in the Norway of the United States!

I remember being on dialup and seeing sites like these, and waiting like 10 minutes for an audio file to load up, and it was the coolest thing in the world, I had to go to my sister's house to do video, and it was awesome.

Bloomington, MN T-1003
