That said, novices like me are bound to ask questions about matters that were discussed some times ago and are cetainly interested about all the talks aroung lenses and accessories before investing an arm and a leg...and so what! Isn't this part of the game of growing! I hope that many more like me will join the LUG and ... as you say, increase the signal-to-noise ratio. The more the people buy this equipment and ask questions about it, the better our chances to still have Leica around for many years... although after having taken a look at their last financial statements I hope they will start bouncing back with new marketing strategies.
