Uh..... OK.

Are you trying to imply something.

Maybe...

They own this piece of real estate with a large building on one side of the parking lot and a small one on the other. When I was doing lots of business with Comp, there was an outfit called "The Rader Companies" renting the front part of the building that Comp mostly occupied, and Racing Head Service (which was actually owned by people from the same family as some of Comp's owners) was across the parking lot. RHS had closed all their other stores around the Memphis area and consolidated in the one bldg. after they bought that property, which must have been in the late 80s sometime. Comp's address is 3400. I'm not positive which one of those other bldgs is 3402, and I don't live in Memphis any more so I can't just drive by and see; but I'm positive that that address is in the Comp "compound".

So it seems suspiciously possible that there could be some kind of connection.
