Aloha Jerry,

I went to All Electronics yesterday, but their offerings of LEDs are limited. Thanks to your tips I found ravelighttoys.com and we'll go there today or tomorrow. Will definitely go to the Public Night on May 10. Great to hear that Maui Maker's is going ahead! See you soon, Chris

Hi Jerry,

Just noticed a post of yours that said you were moving to Maui next summer. What part? I moved to Lahaina in 2007 and am currently working for a startup in Thousand Oaks. We actually have one other engineer on Maui (Wailuku) besides myself. What's bringing you to Maui?

John
