This is a copy of an email sent to me by Archie Black......a person I have never met before, never spoken with in person, never emailed previously.

"Ed; Did you ever get one of the Hard Rock chips from anyone else? If not, after reading your horror story about Northwest Airlines, I would be happy to send you my extra chip. Please respond.

Regards, Archie"

I cant tell you how moved I was by his offer. I was lucky enough to obtain a chip, so I turned his offer down, but I wanted everyone to know what he had done. Archie, I cant thank you enough. I look forward to meeting you in person in 2002 and shaking your hand! This is just one reason....one person....who stands out and makes this hobby...and this Club...GREAT!!!
