A-hem. I will "tone down" my current message by simply checking as to the status of the button production. It has been a while since we DIDN'T LEARN the NAME of the sales person who is MANAGING OUR ORDER!!! AND THEY'RE GOING TO USE THE WRONG TINT OF BLUE ON THEM UNLESS WE ACT NOW!

FOOLS! WE'RE DOOMED! DOOMED!

(So, did they finish makin' 'em yet? Smile

Yeah, this and another project that I won't name (as I have at least PART of what I paid for which is more than I know some who are still waiting for even that can say) just seem to have been pushed to the side. I understand life can take over the best of intentions from time to time, but some of this is getting ridiculous at this point. When I paid, I was under the impression that the problems were sorted and that I'd have the buttons within a month or so. Guess not.

Gerald's Flynn's pin was an example for everyone who tries to set up a project like this to follow. That guy had his poop in a group.
