They might as well go for it!! You can only be a Uranus Virgin once.

 

Russell was banned?

 

Long story short....Russell was a small business sponsor of Rennlist, who while developing the www.maxhpkit.com chip that allowed my car to keep up with your car, fell onto hard times and didn't have the money for the monthly dues. At the same time Rennlist changed ownership from John D. to Roger Penske's company Internet Brands. Russell tried every way he knew to contact IB with no luck. He was even willing to pay the back dues and they still will not take his calls. He was banned without a notice and without ever being given a reason. (Let's just say that I would like to keep my membership here.) His banner ad still runs here on Rennlist so it must not have been about the money. The strange thing is that his products can be purchased from no less than 5 Rennlist sponsors and he is a GOD to the 944 croud. It is beyond my ability to reason why this happened as it did. Believe me, I went as far up as I could go and was stonewalled at every level. For some reason IB does not want him here. Anyway, I said short, so.....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This past Wednesday evening, 4/29, the house I moved into in January burned down. I've basically lost everything, furniture, equipment, etc. I am now seeking a new home, again.

This will slow me down a bit, I'll have to buy more equipment. All data is safe, and my servers reside elsewhere so no interruption of services for Maxtune customers. I will have to replace shipping materials, programmers, and some computers. I will be fully operational again in a week or two. This is actually a minor set back.

Fires are always a terrible thing, but no one was injured, nothing was lost but 'stuff'. Stuff is replaceable, people are not. So I feel blessed.

Until I get a new place I will have limited email/internet access. I will be reachable at the new number, 888-MAXHPKI(T).

Regards,
Russell

 

I just talked to Russell and all is well. The fire started on the other side of the duplex he was living in. He was home and saw the fire early on and got himself out ok. After the fire was out he discovered the fireman had rescued his computers that were all upstairs in a bedroom. The fire may have started in an unused hot tub on the next door balcony.

 

Thanks for the update Doug. Sounds like maybe he needs some customers......maybe the ol' multichip doodad is in the cards?

 

I'll tell you now that my wife will never see the driver's seat in my car until my car has one.
