Monty Atwater - The Original Snow Ranger
I posted a video in a thread focused on Ed LaChappelle, and that started a series of posts that were more focused on Monty Atwater. Not a bad thing, but I have since found some additional Atwater material that might be of interest, and seems like if anyone does he deserves his own thread, so figured I'd start another one here. Hopefully others will add to it over time, and repost Atwater stuff they may have posted elsewhere if they see fit.
Just to get things going...

I believe it was Monty who said something to the effect of, "never use 3 sticks when 6 will make a bigger BOOM!"
I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.
