One chaser a day

I have adopted the idea of showcasing one chaser a day (maybe every few days depending on my availability) to be a featured subject on my blog. While I am not the biggest named chaser out there, I would like to think at least if people hear my name they associate me with storm chasing. A lot of newer chasers out there just want their work to be seen, so I am going to dedicate a portion of my blog to them and their voice. I am going to come with 10-20 generic questions to ask, then ask them for ONE video, and a couple of their best photos. At the end I will allow a paragraph or two of their words and mission/goals for chasing.
