We haven't seen anything yet in my opinion.

Well I was going to leave this alone, but seeing that a few others have responded.... What are you an class A {removed}.... A man is at risk of loosing everything he has worked his entire life for. A business and reputation that he has put real blood sweat and tears into. This has nothing to do with the short coming of petroleum or the end of the age. This has to do with this country being in a bad economic depression. Unfortunately restoring old wooden boats, and keeping them in tip top shape is something that can get cut in anyone's budget that has one. Because normally they are a second boat.

As such Mr. Harper has seen a decline of business since this economic depression started over 2 years ago. Unfortunately this depression got so bad he apparently has not been able to just ride it out.

Many great small business have lost the same battle over the last year. And for some one like you to put BS, earthy crunchy, I want to save the world, but don't expect me to live by the rules I preach crap, out as a response for it all is an insult.

(Don please forgive me for the Tone of this rant. But people need to stop being selfish and thinking about agenda. They need to think about how things like loosing everything you own, really effect a person)
