Not as much news on the show today as I thought there would be. One elevator related death which involved a blind person and a non functioning door interlock apparently. I’m sure that we’ll learn more about this accident as the investigation continues. Other than news I’ll be covering the calendar of events. There are some great marketing opportunities out there and if you’re cutting your advertising or marketing dollars down because of the economy please reconsider. Thomas Jefferson once said, “The man who stops advertising to save money is like the man who stops the clock to save time!”

“Can anyone identify this logo or nameplate?”
I can, it’s my photograph.
I’m glad, if you like it. Anyway, it stands for “People’s National Bank” and it resides in a building of the same name in Waynesburg, PA, currently undergoing restoration.
Very nice! You’ve just one a t-shirt! What size do you wear and e-mail me your address so I can send it out! Thanks for commenting, very cool! Contact me at elevatorradioshow@gmail.com – Thanks Nessa! Very cool photograph, thanks for sharing it. – Tom Sybert – ERS Host.
Fantastic! Thank you so much!
I’ll be sending you the email shortly. I’m really glad you enjoyed the photograph.
By the way, my boyfriend also took pictures of this beautiful elevator, and he’s much more talented with a camera than I am. You can view his pictures here:
