Ihave some news for you this month that many of you have been waiting
for. The 1996 update for the AutoSmart manual is now available. This massive
new update has been a long time in the making, but it is now ready for
shipment. It takes a bit of time to prepare updates for this book but I believe
you will find this year's update to be well worth waiting for.
The update is quite large again this year, with a ton of new information
added. When you purchase the 1996 AutoSmart Update, you will be
receiving, in effect, a whole new book. You'll simply put your update into your
binder, using the new cover sheet we will provide you. You may save your
1995 version as a spare. But you will find so much added information in the
1996 update that you won't want to be without it.
If you haven't yet purchased an AutoSmart, now is the time! To get your
new manual or to update your old one, please see page 125 for further details.
On another note, I want to make my thinking clear about locksmith
legislation and licensing. Boy, is this a sticky area. It is impossible for me to
endorse one side or another without offending somebody! But they say you
can't make an omelette without breaking eggs.
Be aware that I agree there is room for more than one opinion on this
subject. If you disagree with me, I will respect your position. And if you do
agree with my position, please understand that in the interests of fairness, I
am obliged to offer space in the form of Letters to the Editor and the
occasional article to those people who have the opposite view.
That being said, I am strongly in favor of licensing for locksmiths. I did not
used to hold that opinion, but as you know I have revised my stand. The
reason for my about-face has been caused by the amount of legislation being
passed in various states by the alarm industry.
If we do not want to be legislated out of business, then we must get
licensed by the 50 states in a way that does not kill the little guy, and in a
manner that allows us to have some control over the requirements. I do not
want to see us become licensed without helping to create the procedures.
Both ALOA and the NLSA have been tracking a large number of laws
which will, if passed, hurt the locksmith. If we were licensed, these groups
would have a much easier time fighting our battle for us. It's time to support
ALOA and the NLSA in this effort.
Locksmiths are an independent bunch and we do not like being told what
to do. We don't like to give anyone power over us, not even our own
associations. That is why I think that many locksmiths are not even
association members.
But now is the time to support our associations as they seek to help us
become licensed, big shops and little shops alike, and on equal footing. If we
don't get involved in the process, we will suffer more as time goes on.
Locksmith
licensing...the
time is now!
