Subject: Re: Gavin clones
We keep a steady supply of parts , motors, etc to support the existing
scooter fleet. Curt De Reamer is a broke dick red neck asshole who lives
out of a camper and was fired by Dive Rite for extreme incompetence, and
who does not have the wherewithall to handle more than lunch money at
one time. The guy has screwed everyone and anyone who walked into his
"scooter repair" trap, as you would expect. You can't fix stupid.

  The fact is this jerk has no business using our name and faking our
scooters, and certainly has no business asking more than $200 for these
pieces of shit. The "cave diving community" continues to be what I said
it was all along.

  As Sallot said, our scooters are sold to others to help support the
WKPP, and to supoort the existing fleet which are uncondinionally
guaranteed forever and maintained by me and Bill Mee. I would like to
see this worthless fat slob De Reemer or any of his moron trailer rat
buddies stand up to that.

  I am really sick of the assholes out there taking cheap shots at us,
lke trying to sell bad copies of our scooters and other developed gear
for $100 less than ours . I will do whatever it takes to put an end to
that, and anyone who wants to take on me and the WKPP better pack a very
serious lunch.
