Sam,

It wasn't a pissing match.  There was no disagreement between B.D. and I AT
ALL.  In fact, if you had been paying attention, you would have noticed I
AGREED with his comments to Tina about comparing the output of the Digilux
to film.

> and that is exactly where you were heading with your question.

No, you don't know what you're talking about.  B.D. and I are friends.  It's
well known that math is not his strong point, and he says that quite
frequently, at least to me.  It was called busting someone's butt.

> Nor do we need to witness bd's constant whining about Tina and Leica.

And that has not one single thing to do with this, so why on earth are you
bringing it up?

> I do not think anyone is happy at seeing that negative s**t on an

There was not a thing negative about it.  You completely misread the
situation, and the issues you believe existed, only exist in your head.

I'd say it's YOU pushing things here.

Well, if it's that obvious to you, you should question your vision.  Your
belief is entirely BS.  Your comments are entirely inappropriate and way out
of line.

> If you have a problem

I have not one problem with B.D.  He and I have been friends for years.  You
obviously misread the situation.

I DO have a problem with you though.  Your comments are really appropriate.
If you have a problem with me, why don't you simply do as YOU suggest, and
take it off-list, and I could have explained it to you, without you having
to be so publicly degrading.

> As far as you back and forth with me is concerned, you win.

You have somehow turned a light joke between B.D. and me into your personal
attack on me.

Austin
