They also have obligation to notify the manufacture if they suspect a fellow dealer is ignoring any part of the dealership rules or requirements. But you do not publish your potential dealership problems (ie dirty laundry) for the public to see! This is sensitive and potentialy damaging information that should stay within the dealership chain. It is Garmin's responsibility to look into the allagations and see what, if any actions are needed. For the president of a dealership to go public and announce that he has turned another dealership in and why, is a very poor bussiness practice indeed.

KRron From: "Jon Sieffert" Subject: The future of flight...? Ok guys heads up!! I just saw an interesting phenomenom that one of the guys were experimenting at school. He rigged up a lightweight frame and fashioned a crude assymetrical capacitor. He hooked it up to the high-voltage coil of a monitor for power. The darn thing lifted off the table like it was using antigravity drive! Of course the wire that was used to channel high voltage was used to ionized the air and the foil beneath it acted like an accelerator ring. The smell of ozone was quite strong. From what Chris said the aerodynamic effect would be only 1/3 the needed force to lift the device. My theory would be that in conjunction with the air being excited and moving down. I think the kinetic and electrostatic energy is imparted to the ionized air added to the thrust to lift up the frame. If you ever seen those sharper image infomercials about the ionic breeze air fresheners, it's the same principle only much stronger in this case! I've had a long-standing vision of using electrostatic force and using ionized air as a source for propulsive force. Since these guys are only sophomores and not familiar with electronic technology; I can safely say I have most of the expertise in building high powered power supplies. It's definately exciting to see something that was discovered back in the early 70's come back to the forefront and seriously considered for research! I just thought I'd noise around what I saw first hand. We'll shoot a video of it in action so I'll be badgering to get a copy of it. Bug y'all later!

KR1? KR2? KR2S? Or do you just hang out to make sure that nothing untoward happens? I know where you are coming from, but I also know that you have just blown infinitely more business out your ear that you may ever have made by selling a few GPS's - trust me on that. Silly man, you were well on your way to getting ACS back up there. Maybe you just got out of the wrong side of the election?

I work at Sears electronic dept and we sell the Bose 3-2-1 system. Bose sets the price of this system and Sears can't offer a discount on the system, even when everything else in the store is 10% off (if you use your sears card) the Bose system is not included in the sale. Bose may occasionally authorize a sale of $50 or $100 off on a system that cost $999.99.
