I myself would like to be kept up to speed as to who is "with us", or not.
Although incomprehensible to us (with a passion for NEON), most big companies (and most full-service sign companies) follow the almighty dollar and would sell out the neon industry in a heartbeat.
I've been asked numerous times by people in the sign business and others..... "why aren't you getting into LED's???".
Simply put, I have no desire to sell or install a product that I have nothing but disdain for. I believe it to be inferior and distasteful, etc.
Handcraft is dying in general. Hopefully Neon will survive !
Thanks for fighting for all of us Mark.
