...I don't think so,  Andre Jean Quintal, who or what ever you may be. I
don't think you have any respect for anyone who fails to hold the same
opinions you hold, what ever they may be - and after reading your quite
bizarre post I don't even want to contemplate what the answer to that one
may be!

Had you taken the time to read my original post word for word, you would
have noted that I was simply asking a question - you know, a question? This
group considers many subjects only tangentially related to Leica
photography, and I would suggest that questions regarding Leica Nazi
paraphernalia are hardly tangential.

As to my "invading your space," this is a list server. if you don't want
your "space" invaded with my opinions, the easiest thing to do is cancel
your subscription to the list.

Oh, by the way...I referred somewhat factiously to my Jewish "genetic"
heritage as there is no such thing as a Jewish race, and therefore no such
thing as  a "genetic" Jew. My only point referring to my "heritage" was to
lay all my cards on the table when I expressed my opinion.

In closing I would note that while I have never been a practicing Jew, and
have never even had any Jewish religious instruction, as long as there are
people of your ilk in the world I will continue, proudly, to call myself a
Jew. When there are no longer people who would post the kind of diatribe you
posted, then it will not longer matter whether I consider myself a Jewish or
Druish.

Oh, did you really mean to end your post with a quote from a pedophile?
