...message, not its music, that is offbeat. That message is preached by the movement's founder, Victor Paul Wierwille, 54, a trim, tanned, fast-talking six-footer who likes to wear Western-cut suits with a scarf around his neck and tool around the countryside on a big Harley-Davidson.

Each of them was laid off after more than three decades of steady work when Michigan Tool's parent company, ExCellO Corp., decided to move the Detroit operation to North Carolina.
