But perhaps the rules are loosened a bit for the show to have more builders. I'm fairly sure that he won't allow any Asian builders though, something to do with his assertion that they are inferior. Italians welcome though.
what-is-the-big-deal???
the thread that you're replying to has the
list of participants and IF is listed, yet
you're asking (originally) if they'll be banned
from coming. many of the participants are
NOT one-man operations. what am i missing?
