I used the word "moreso" in a post a few days ago and had to teach it to
my netscape spell checker, here you are using it and it got me all
excited. I looked it up in the "onelook" dictionary site which looks up
your word in ten zillion dictionaries simultaneously. Guess what, no
such word. Isn't that fascinating? :}  The beginning of the new Leica Dictionary.
I've been an M user for 5 years and never thought much about R until the
8 came along. The 100 macro dose things the M is less than ideal for. So
would a 180! My next millennium resolution will be to someday get some
of that stuff. I miss the sound of a mirror flapping around. The past of
Leica R is complex and questionable but the future looks very positive
to me at least.
