    Wow, what a nice write-up / tribute to Steve! He certainly deserves it!
    Don`t it always seem to go, you don`t know what you`ve got til it`s gone?

    Steve, you have come a long way, what`s the next step/goal ?

    I thought that Steve was the captain of a Portuguese fishing boat, before starting his own detailing line. This really changes the way I look at him

    I have never had better service than from Steve back over a year and a half ago when I first tried s&W. Steve then sent me a free "suprise", it was a large sample of EX. Since then (and as recent as two weeks ago), I still receive the great personal service and the onslaught of high quality products. Thanks Steve and PB.
