Ya sucks you didn't win an award Denis, I really thought you should have. But I am not the judge, and If i felt better I would have been & you would have won. By the way Denis, pictures of Murray are all over the Aircoolers website. In the Dallas Aircoolers Gallery! I loved the foam motor, the foam head, etc. Can't wait until Eureka springs show just to see what your doing next.
