You should have been here last week. It was the Zeiss-Ikon forum.

It hasn't been histrionic lately. I expected a outpouring of who won the 
debate talk, but I think we are actually all so tired of hearing our own 
bullshit, it finally has been reaching an extinction phase........

Leica hasn't been coming out with many new innovations in the preceding 
year. So we SHOULD be talking about techniques, books of images, galleries 
of images, and how to get the meter on an M5 repaired. We SHOULD.
