Tragedy strikes Swiss Link
I guess the "Camp Fire" in California completely destroyed Swiss Link. This is such a tragedy; they were my go-to source for much of my preferred clothing and equipment. I am hoping they can recover. I received an email from them stating that their goal was to get back up on their feet but so much good surplus was destroyed. Much of it probably stuff that cannot be replaced.

Looks like they are indeed trying to come back from this. They are selling t-shirts to help fund their comeback. Seems kind of like a stretch but...

What a major drag!
