I attempted to email, but failed. This was my response
Sir.
It is hard to cite myself as the source. I am the one who worked for them. I discussed with Den McNulty (a personal friend whom I worked with along side Larry Bill) if it would be ok to include myself on the page since I detailed every piece of wood and steel on most of their coasters. His response was "absolutely, you were an integral part of our company"
I was also an employee of CDS in the '80s , detailed the Mean Streak and was assigned the task of laying out the Raging Bobs coaster at Geauga Lake from only photos of the Chicago coaster.
Sorry, but I was a little put out when, just because YOU hadnt seen anything to verify my employment, that it didnt exist. I would be more than happy to hook you up with Den McNulty or any of the Gravity Group guys to verify my work on these coasters.
I tried to send you an email, but Wiki doesnt make that connection an easy task. I can go back and edit if you wish, but I will continue to put myself in that group. Nobody can take my accomplishments away from me.

I don't really know what to tell you. I've met with Dennis McNulty and I can reach him through a friend of mine, I also know the GG guys. I'm sure I can verify your information, but that doesn't solve the problem of Wikipedia requiring a published, reliable source. I looked through the old material I have on Curtis D. Summers, Inc, some of which includes pictures of the employees, but you were not pictured. Do you happen to know of a publication — Amusement Business, Inside Track, RollerCoaster Magazine — anything that mentions your involvement with Summers or CCI? —JlACEer ( talk) 04:33, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
