<color><param>0100,0100,0100</param>Spoken like a true practitioner of the 'scientific method', Erwin. My
hat's off to you for your stringent use of it and listening to all views.
I quite agree, but unfortunately, I am (and, I suspect most others) a
part of that vast legion of average <italic>Homo sapiens, </italic>who, after
hearing the constant whines, begin to dismiss the person rather than
the view only. You are an inspiration for me to mend my ways.
(The interesting thing is that I, too, fall into the class of constant
whiner. Not with respect to Leica, but the body politic. I guess that
we all have our 'Achilles Heel'.)
