Jim,

Last week when I was doing all of my running around shooting all over
Tennessee, Kentucky and North Carolina only one person in all of those
places recognized the Leica name. That was a fellow working in the DANA
plant in Hopkinsville,Ky building car parts. The fellow had been
assigned to be my shadow to help lug my gear (my assistant was very
happy about this) and be sure I did not get into anywhere I was not
supposed to be. He is an avid hunter and said "Leica, those people make
some great binoculars, expensive, but great.  Are the cameras as good?"
