Jerry, Seems your link doesn't work, but I searched and found it. I had not read about the blue car blowing.

I'm not sure what to say.

Seems like why it blew up in the first place no longer matters. - That's a good thing. Shows you've moved on.

If you weren't there talking shit, then it's all good. If you were there stirring shit up, then I can see where they are coming from.

I can say if anyone ever said this to me:
"you bad mouth S&R in any way I will take appropriate actions"
They would be royally fucked, as my life mission would become fucking there lives up.

They have gotten popular by posting on every board out there about the meets... Carefull... those boards will hurt as much as they can help. All it takes is one ASSHOLE with a lot of respect and friends to show up and protest peacefully for a couple weeks before there is a serious liability issue for S&R on every marketing scheme they come up with...
