    I see you have changed your photo and added to your profile since last I
    visited your page Bart. At least you have returned 8-). There is so much
    that you can learn by navigating this site before you open your espresso doors,
    I hope that you take advantage of it.

    By the way, as an interesting note, David Schomer began as one of our
    high volume customers, as an owner of two well located espresso carts in
    the 1980's before he began his own Vivace Roaserie. He made frequent visits
    to our roasting facilities to meet with our founder, Mauro Cipolla. They both
    befriended each other, and both went on to be Icons of the Seattle espresso
    scene.

    I am about to pull my hair out of my head. I am trying to get the financing to start up and its just nerve racking . The small business administratiion says they have speciality programs targeted toward women, minorities and low income people, well they dont tell you that your credit needs to be decent. But I think Obama changed the program by backing the loans with treasuy bonds. I wish I knew this before i went to college and became disabled and ruined my credit. Someone help me up.
