    Russman used to work the Polk showings with Doro. He's here in Texas with Skip and I and is my Blowtorch Audio Werks buddy . He's probably in the LSAF pics.

    Lightman is like Flash Gordon, just more infamous. Sometimes if you look real hard he'll be dangling or perched on the power lines.

    Russman goes back way farther than that. He was just a forum regular when all this started.

    I talk to him on Facebook often.

    Also, I said it answered questions. Never said it answered them correctly.

    Hey guys, he doesn't live out there.....he's just working on a lighting project out there. He's still resides here in the South.

    Ryan gave me his REAL address. The neighborhood will be declared a Superfund site once I leave. My reign of terror and tastless party routines spreads now through the mid-west. You have been warned! Hail The Lightman!
