Subject: [Leica] Couple of E-330 shots

Bruce - Shorter is usually better, true. But something poetic in
"O-Lymp-a-Leic" kept bouncing around. Reminds me of some old 60's song, "In
the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight." Then the chorus is
o-wik-a-wac or something like that. Or at least something like
O-Lymp-a-Leic.

Thanks for leic-o-pine-ing!
Gary

Gray, like others, I guess, I have been thinking about the name since
you posted .................. and can only come-up with a shortened
version version, with a more playful name ................
OLYLEIC ................... OLYCON .....................
OLYNIK ................Pronounce it.
