It’s Elevator Escalator Safety Week everyone and we’ve got a couple of cool stories about how some are promoting it! Well my kids are feeling much better and it’s good to be back. I apologize for missing last weeks show and realize that as much as I look forward to doing it each week many of you look forward to listening to it. We’ll get caught up on all the news today, share some press releases and talk about the upcoming schedules for the various elevator associations listed below. Also on topic for the show today is the fun Holiday Elevator Auction that is going to happen over on ElevatorGear.com Dece 1-5, all proceeds to benefit the EESF!
