Vern is a top-notch guy. I would recommend him highly.
Another you might consider is Brian Wallis (uses his own name on the forums), A&P with IA, building a 7A, really knows his stuff. Only down side with Brian is that he splits his time between Atlanta (home) and Florida (job). If you need somebody spur-of-the-moment, Brian might not be able to help.
I personally know both of these guys and consider them both friends...you can't go wrong with either one!
