Here is a link for a article that Varjeal and I are in, for the network admins out there and the general population of hobbyist lockpickers.

http://www.nwfusion.com/news/2004/11080 ... locks.html

In case this is the wrong forum since it really wasn't off topic but I couldn't post it in the Lockpicking 101 - FAQs, and General Information I didn't know really where to put it so moderators exorcise you powers accordingly heh.

And yes guys as you read the article I am starting a lockpicking group in the US in New Jersey named as you guessed it, TOOOL-USA after I was giving the blessing of The Key himself Barry Wells.

-cheers

Among those interested in joining are a pianist and a dentist, Michaud says.


:twisted: They make it sound so funny. I hope TOOOL-USA does well, it'd be nice to have a group here in the US, even if it is on the other side of the continent. :cry:

Hell I'd like a Texas Chapter, I'd be willing to throw time at something like that.

EricM, that is good to see - not only the benevolent article, but also that you really get a TOOOL US going.

I wish you success.

Cheers,

on the subject of TOOOL - that article mentions what the toool website says about itself in the FAQ's - that the three O's are for "practicing Over and Over and Over".

but I had always thought that the reason they said that in the FAQ's was because it was a bit of a dig at the people who couldn't read the words on the actual logo:
