I received e-mail yesterday that said that Charlie Wolk had sold out to Don Markus. Finding this hard to believe today I conformed this with Norm when I phoned in a parts order. Just thought you'd all want to know. Mark  |  IP: Logged Ken Layton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1452 From: Olympia, Wash.

Are those parts suddenly going to be "Unavailable" or is the price going to go sky high or what? Let's not forget how many of us run with old equipment out here in the field. Don't forget those trusted Super Simplexes, E-7's, Motiographs, Brenkerts, Peerless Magnarcs, Strong Moguls, etc.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 02-11-2000 03:01 PM                       Charlie's a good guy, and he's probably ready for retirement. He's sure deserves it! BTW, who's Don Markus?  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-11-2000 03:18 PM                     According to Norm, Charlie will continue to be there inbetween around the world tours.

Thanks for the kindness you've shown me through the years at the shows. It certainly was your pleasure to be sure. See you at the shows. Didn't you introduce Don as your Bodygaurd?  |  IP: Logged
