PER CURIAM:

     Thompson   Industrial   Services,   Inc.,   appeals   the   district

court’s order granting M.G. Bryan Equipment Co.’s motion to dismiss

for lack of personal jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and

the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.             See

Thompson Indus. Servs. v. M.G. Bryan Equip. Co., No. CA-99-1214-3-

17 (D.S.C. Sept. 13, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                                 AFFIRMED
