Damn, that's a pretty big hit. Never met Erik but I know Fred liked him. Speaking of which, I must say, I miss seeing Fred at all the events.

Erik took the time to personally explain and answer questions about the QC4v platform design/maintenance to our crew. Very personable and approachable guy that really seemed to be every bit the enthusiast that his customers are.

I feel terrible for the subordinates.....

I mean, does he prefer to be addressed as “Space Cowboy”, “Maurice”, or “Gangster of Love”?.... Because you get it wrong, and you’re worrying about a stapler and listening to your music at a reasonable level in a closet, ya know?!

as in OSO Gordo ?? or a different Mike Gordon???

Delete all your sent and received PM's. Your PM box is probably full. You can only have 10 total as a registered member or 50 as a paid or charter member.
