- Well, I have seen him. He's not really all that impressive as I see it. His
- tournament are less than top quality [being held in what appears to be an old
- airplane hangar!] And I certainly won't say that the judging was complete
- unbiased. Actually, the judging was more like a laughable attempt to make it
- appear that everyone had spent 35 dollars wisely. Anyway, they're at least a
- nice little diversion every 6 months or so. The next one is in May most
- likely, and they are held in Hamburg, Pennsylvania. About 8-10 miles north of
- Reading.
