we are still missing the very awesome video! just saying.


Why not ask Carlo?  He has a Facebook page.
cause I dont have him as a friend on facebook and I don't know what his page is.

[sigh]

Go to Facebook and search for Carlo Gamboa.  I don't think you'll get too many hits.

Hey guys,

So, here's the short story...

-Carlo videotaped the unboxing.
-Later when he tried to remove the video, it said the file was corrupt
-He took it somewhere to recover the file (the guy said it was possible)
-the guy was wrong, and the file was lost forever

I've asked Carlo to at least make a collection video.  Hopefully he gets to it this week.

And here's Carlo's FB profile

That's pretty disappointing I guess... However I do agree a deck collection video would be just as nice.

Just a quick bump, as I have heard some folks were looking for this topic.  It's long, combining three topics together, but it's a great story about the crew teaming up to help a man recover from a serious natural disaster and restore his collection to even better than it was before.

It's worth reading.

It was indeed a memorable moment.  Perhaps we'll come together again as a community at some point, when the need arises.
