WAY TO GO MIKE!!!!! That is some fine work on your part.

I will be praying for the guy at the gym. Hope that he is ok. But you are right, it is kinda sobering to see something like that and remind you where you could have been. I know it is for me.

Keep up the great work, you are definately an inspiration!
