Sounds good to me.

FWIW, I checked the WalMart near me today. Shelf space allotted to rockets completely empty of kits, motors or anything else related. Surrounding space in disarray. Frankly, based on my observations of WalMart over the past few years and all the stories here of ridiculously low-priced motors, I'm inclined to think WalMart's product management is crap. It doesn't take a PhD in business to stock an aisle. Nor to be a buyer or corporate product manager. But having empty shelves in a retail establishment is sinfully stupid.
