I just wanted to give everyone a "head's up" that everything will NOT be as
normal at the Velocity factory for the next few days - as we all begin
preparing (in inerst) for Hurrican Frances.  At the moment, it looks like
the storm is heading for the central Atlantic seaboard of Florida - often
called the "Treasure Coast" (named after, you guessed it, the large number
of treasure ladened sailing ships that sank in this area during hurricanes).
One wx forecaster said the hurricane center was headed for "Sebastian Inlet"
(about 5-miles away from the factory).  Let's hope not.  Anyway - unless
it's an emergency, please wait until Monday to order parts and to ask for
technical assistance.  The Velocity crew plans to be at the factory and the
Service Center through Friday - but many will be home - doing their best to
safeguard their home and loved ones.  We'll all be taking a critical
assessment of the storm's path on Thursday - and if Sebastian is anywhere
near "ground zero", most of the crew, including myself, plan to "bug out" to
find refuge inland.
Thanks for your understanding ... and say a little prayer!
Best regards,
Scott B.
