Good luck getting a straight answer from anyone.  But a lot of callmakers contributed calls and have not heard a thing in years.  I will hold my comments and thoughts for others to make.

 I sat for an hour and a half doing an interview in Nashville. I wanted to talk about working call, call makers and al they wanted to get was views on the decorative calls. I guess, that the directive from the NWTF fell on its face.

couldn't agree more bill. seemed like a great idea and couldn't wait for it to be complete. when I was at the nationals I seen them follow Constantine for 3 days. nothing against dave, great guy awesome callmaker, but he is only a small percentage of great guys.

Was just wondering. I know a lot of callmakers donated calls to fund this film. I was talking to the man in charge of Arts Quest here in PA he wanted to do a Wild Turkey Night and was thinking of using this film that night He asked me IfI heard anything about it and told him No nobody talking about it thats the reason I asked. Thanks Guys

Fellas, the project is temporarily shelved
 It was a fantastic idea,  but in the end it almost cost the film maker his career, his hpuse and his marriage. The last thing we should do is bash him for it.  Alot of us callmakers donated and rhe money raised was used on production. And that was only a drop in the bucket for what was spent.  Not even close to what he spent out of his own pocket.
 In time we may see the project finished. But bashing him behind the scene certainly wont motivate anyone to finish it.
