Zurno should be PMing you. I just called his lazy ass. He's been busy moving all week, so I'm sure he hasn't had time to check.

Voted for my boy. The kid is hardcore about focus's, puts up his money to get parts into town for all of us MN guys. Also when my car was blown last year he went out of town for a week and lent me his car. God I love that quick ass thing.
