Please for business sake do spell check on articles before publishing them. There are several typos in this article and Mr. SUTTLES gave his bussiness card to the reporter who came and yet his name was wrong in the entire article. The article also was not quoted correctly to the questions asked. Some to point of not making sense.

Thank you
