Eco-Friendly Tent Poles

Message:
Hello,
My name is Giselle Judd and I am a part of Victoria University. As a part of my interior degree I am enrolled in INTA 212 which is taking part in the LUXCITY project where two fellow students and I are designing a pavilion to be set up in Wellington, at the university, and at Christchurch. LUXCITY is all about designing a pavilion that is illuminated for a night’s entertainment in Christchurch. The pavilion has to be assembled not only in Christchurch but in Wellington as well hence the structure has to be able to be taken down in suitcase(s). This is why we were considering using light weight structures and wondered if you would sponsor our structure. The form we are trying to construct, it is a metaphorical representation about the movement of the residents of Christchurch with the movement of residents out of the CBD. The CBD has always been the heart and centre of Christchurch and still remains to be, even after the earthquake. The centre is a structural member that supports the arms encasing the visitors this will be covered in fabric. We would really appreciate your support and consultation on what we are trying to achieve. Please check out our face book pagehttp://www.facebook.com/cynosure40 for more information or contact us through our emailcynosure40@gmail.com. If this is possible please give me an email address to let me know and I will send you the corresponding information, photos, contact information from our supervisor etc. and I can let you know about the quantity that we would need for our pavilion. By calculation I believe most of the equipment could be returned to you.
Thank you for your time, Giselle Judd

If you are worried about getting struck by lightning from a tent pole perhaps you are better off sitting onteh sofa...

A tent manufacturer does not necessarily have to manufactur all partsof a whole. Geesh. A hundred tent makers probably all get their poles from somewhere else.

How much and can I retrofit them to a tent I already have? Also, are they shock corded or what?

The answer to the question makes the question sound right. Change manufacturers to manufacturer and you'll see what i mean.

"How do manufacturers make your trusty tent poles better for the environment? We discovered the magic formula right here. "

Now read it as;

""How do manufacturer make your trusty tent poles better for the environment? We discovered the magic formula right here.""

1 letter makes all the difference :)

Are there any figures on lightening strikes using aluminum tent poles? I'd feel more comfortable with other than aluminum.

An apostrophe generally indicates possessive, not plural. Did you mean more than one manufacturer in your headline? Or were you indicating some sort of weird possessive sentence construction...? Either way, any editor worth the title would have caught and corrected the error.... Sheesh!
