The original "Cook Brothers" (Gary and ???)sold the business back in the late 80's or early 90's. The brothers went on to start up Cook's Quality Components a few years later but was forced to shut down due to a no compete clause in the sale of the original company. The current Cook Brothers owner has offended quite a few people I have talked to. They were just asking questions so I'm not sure what his problem is. That's all I know.
