I try to go to the SVT-HOI Chapter club meets and stuff (down in Peoria). It's a good time. I've run into Bob a coupla times too. His install sounds as good as it looks too.

Just seeing all of the drama in the Chicago forum keeps me from getting involved locally. A couple other CSVT owners I've crossed paths with in the area who are active on the boards had the same feelings too.
