Re: [Leica] To Walt: Noise level in this group

[Walter S Delesandri <walt@jove.acs.unt.edu>]

Done.  However, my 'conclusions' are based on many posts, not 
one post from you, Pascal.  I see where you could interpret it 
this way, and I'm sorry if you did.  My comments on your post 
were too general, and shouldn't have been sent as a reply to 
your singular post without explanation.   

It is a reaction to ALL the 'on-topic' posts, and as a (former?)
photographer, the politics are at least as important as any 
equipment discussion -- TO WORKING PHOTOGRAPHERS....not you, 
not I at this time, but many others on this group.

I apologize for reacting the way I did as it seemed an attack 
on you ONLY, not good manners on my part.....but IN THEORY, 
I stick by what I said, based on the membership of the group 
as I perceive it.
