B.D.,

I foolishly just wrote how old I am and how long I've been using Leicas. I
forgot to mention the (Leica) cameras I have, the (Leica) lenses I have,
the (Leica) cameras I have had, ditto lenses, not to mention the other
formats from Minox C to 8x10 Sinar with nary a gap. I'll get right on it so
that your work will be complete. Oh - I forgot to mention that a listing of
exhibitions, plublications etc will also have to be included.

I will get right on it and post the first installment shortly.

We don't want you to have _too_ much slack time before Christmas 2010. :-)
