Grayson,
I am looking at the article, but do not see anyone from Akron. Richard
Hull is the coiler with Nemesis, but he is from Richmond, Va. There are
three others in the picture with Richard, but their names are not given.
The artist shown with the TC is Dave Archer, but he lives in San Rafael, Ca.
Sorry, this isn't much help, but maybe you can contact the TCBOR(Tesla coil
builders of Richmond) and see if they can locate this person for you.
