But you didn't exercise your right to be quiet here... I seriously doubt if
the LUG would, or even could, degenerate into a rec.photo. People here are
mature adult Leica enthusiasts. As Jim Kuehl told me, when he shipped me a
lens, with no credit card or ID, "in all of my years of business, I've
never been stiffed by a Leica user." I believe we should be honest with
each other. So far, I believe everyone has been honest. And I don't expect
it to change.
