Pete are you going to CES in January ?

[Pete]

No. I'm registered, or at least on the list, but I'm not into that. I don't sell any of those goods and hardly use them. Just not me.

I did post a notice on it here, if anyone is interested. Getting late for that one.

I went last year and also to SEMA ( Auto show ) a few weeks so I'm kinda Vegas out, But might go anyway and will decide nearer the time

[Pete]

Being in the auto parts business for a couple of decades got me to SEMA pretty often. Haven't been for years, that's behind me now.
