Finally, we talk at length with Steve Richards of Richards and Richards about being ready for disaster in you RIM business. With a recent fire in our industry, there is no better person to talk to than Steve.  And as much as many believe they are prepared, this interview should not be missed.  Just listening and implementing one thing Steve talks about in this show could save you some major headaches if anything did ever happen to you.
