I wanted to start out saying that my recent trip to New York was very productive. I was able to stay in Bay Ridge in Brooklyn and commuted via the subway to the Javit Center on W. 34th St. in Manhattan, to the Buildings
New York show that was going on there. I was able to meet some new people and also saw some folks who had recently been to the National Hardware show, in Las Vegas. Several who were in attendance are subscribers to this magazine and it was very good to visit with you. At the show I was able to get the latest on two things that were of interest to me in particular, namely mold and lead abatement.
