installer's list [RE-wrenches]

[Jonathan Hill]

<x-flowed>>Kirk-

Many of us (not necessarily "big box solar marts") sell to people out 
of our area and these people need help with their installation that 
the out-of-area dealers may not be able to provide. Not everyone buys 
locally, though I admit that it would be a good idea. Also, many 
dealer/installers are happy to do installations even where they 
didn't sell the equipment. A list of these installers would be 
helpful for dealers and customers alike.
