David, Thanks for the recommendation, I'm flattered. However, I am nearly 3 hours from Little Rock, and really don't have any desire to build clientele that far away. I saw the previous post regarding Denele Campbell and Bill Yick. Denele is in Fayetteville which is another hour in the opposite direction, and is inactive in our chapter at this time. Bill is our chapter president and lives in Charleston, which is actually about 2-1/2 hours away from Little Rock. He would be most likely to know who to contact, although in my discussions with him, Little Rock is pretty hard up for good techs right now. We have a couple of new chapter members down there, but they are just starting to tune. I'm not sure one of them has even hung out his shingle, yet. There are a couple names I could give you to avoid, but that's better left for a private post and inquiry. I would recommend getting in touch with Bill directly or I can talk to him next week and see what he thinks. Bill is at BYick@aol.com By the way, if anyone is thinking of moving to Little Rock to fill the niche, I'd suggest checking out the HBO special from a few years back called, "Banging in Little Rock" that featured all the various gangs that are there. Good footage of things I'd like to avoid (drive-by shootings, drug deals in broad daylight, etc). Supposedly, LR has one of the highest crime rates per capita in the country. Tell your client to invest in a security system. Todd L.
