I'll tell you what I'd like to find, La fletcha, is some tanned gar hides. Do you know how tough that stuff would be??!! Hell, it takes a pair of tin snips or a Dremel tool just to cut one of those dudes open! You could make a suit of armor out of gar hide, me thinks.
Doc Nock, we're having the event at the Ramada Oasis Convention Center in Springfield, MO. They have a nice hotel so you have a place to stay. You show up and I'll buy you a beer. Hell, I'll buy you a 12 pack!
