I'll keep you in mind DrK. And of course it all depends on where exactly he ships.
I think the release order will be intriguing. Theyre going to need to keep all of the installment people on board for the long haul, so I could see them releasing Boa and maybe Nano right after the final payment is made, to keep everyone as happy as possible by getting Boa and a builder in hands as soon as feasible. And by not waiting until the very end and including a must have in the final shipment it could help build some goodwill for a possible FSS 2. And the mystery figure could really make or break future subscribers. |

Saw this story on TV last night. It was on a Dateline NBC type show.
Apparently there is a strike going on at the Port of LA & Port of Long Beach. Apparently these 2 ports handle 40% of our imports. I am thinking this might affect the FSS figures as well as lots of other products coming from ASIA. Day Four of LA-Long Beach port strike - San Jose Mercury News lmao |

Just got e-mail from the club that we probably won't get the first shipment before Christmas now because of the strike

Hello everyone,
Our latest update is not a happy one. Many of you may not be aware that there is a labor strike going on by the west coast ports clerical workers. This is now going to impact our delivery of the first FSS set. Currently they have been striking a week, and this is the latest from our shipper: ILWU OCU Local 63 Update - Ports of Los Angeles / Long Beach As of this morning it is expected that the first shift in the LA / LGB will continue to picket the terminals affected by the strike. Talks between the two sides ended Saturday night at 10PM PST without a resolution. Talks resumed yesterday at 10am PST and are ongoing around the clock. Presiding the talks are local mediators and Los Angeles Mayor Villaigosa. The offer submitted by the HEA (Harbor Employer Association) is still being reviewed and is offering the 600 clerical workers a compensation package of USD 190,000 – USD 35,000 more than the present package. ### It is our understanding that this strike is costing the country over a billion dollars in lost revenue each day. I suggest that you contact your senators and congressman and ask them to do something as this could really impact everyone's Christmas, not just our shipment. Originally our ship was scheduled to dock on Sunday, Dec 2, they have slowed down and are scheduled for tomorrow Wednesday, December 5 but....even if they get to dock, there is now a week's backlog on the docks that is not moving so, the likelihood that we will even receive the shipment by Christmas is slim. Our plan is to turn the shipment and get it out to you as soon as we receive it. This should NOT impact future FSS shipments as even if we have to ship two sets in January, we are not planning on changing the timing of the future shipments. It may be that the first two come really close together. I will keep you updated as we get information from our shipper. Thanks for your patience, Brian |

They should just mail them all at once when the do get them for all the delays and screw-ups. We should be on sub 2 at this point lol.
