Hey Henner,

  I'm heading over to the space now. I ran over to Central Computers this
morning... they were out of crimpers. Office Crap and Office Dickhole no
longer sell them as well. Tried to get one at the Radio Crack on Potreo,
but it had been remodeled as a "concept store" which means they sell mostly
cell phones... luckily I found one at the Radio Shack on San Bruno -- which
was still a "classic" store yet to be remodeled. It was all rather
ridiculous, but hey, I got the tool.

Anyhow, I'm swinging by ...
