Mooi artikel. Duidelijk en leuk om te lezen. Goede PR ;-)
Awesome, well done!
Fantastic, what a suprise to open the NYT and read about my friends from Holland!
Congratulations on yet another good locksport article in a major American newspaper! First WSJ and now NYT, very well done! I have scanned the actual newspaper in for those who would like to see how it looked in print. Sorry about the 2 pages, no Photoshop handy where I am.

Hmm, I have never heard of a German branch of Toool ;)
Also, I know that many members of SSDeV – the German locksport organization – did help lock manufacturers on many occasions.
Other than that, nice article :)
Cheers
